---|
| 4 | |
---|
| 5 | Unix base type support standard unix users and groups base, eg C<password> and |
---|
| 6 | C<group> file normally located in C</etc>. |
---|
| 7 | |
---|
| 8 | This base support has written to support C<NIS> database, generated over this |
---|
| 9 | files. |
---|
| 10 | |
---|
| 11 | Managing the system file with this module is at your own risk. |
---|
| 12 | |
---|
| 13 | Unlike other base support, this module need direct read and write permission to |
---|
| 14 | filesystem. Ensure tools and daemon are run using ocrrect user. |
---|
| 15 | |
---|
| 16 | =head1 SPECIFIC SETUP PARAMTERS |
---|
| 17 | |
---|
| 18 | =head2 directory |
---|
| 19 | |
---|
| 20 | The directory where files are located. If not specified F</etc> is assumed. |
---|
| 21 | |
---|
| 22 | =head2 use_shadow |
---|
| 23 | |
---|
| 24 | If set to true, F<shadow> and F<gshadow> are generated, password in F<passwd> |
---|
| 25 | file are replace by C<x>. This also mean attributes stored in shadow files are |
---|
| 26 | supported. |
---|
| 27 | |
---|
| 28 | =head2 nis_overflow |
---|
| 29 | |
---|
| 30 | Some version of C<NIS> base dont support line longer than 4096 bytes, which |
---|
| 31 | happend if you have lot of people in a specific groups. |
---|
| 32 | |
---|
| 33 | This parameter provide ways to avoid this problem (notice it concern only the |
---|
[1143] | 34 | F<group> file. |
---|
[1111] | 35 | |
---|
| 36 | =over 4 |
---|
| 37 | |
---|
| 38 | =item <unset> |
---|
| 39 | |
---|
| 40 | No specific action is taken, line is writen as is into the output file. |
---|
| 41 | |
---|
| 42 | =item kill |
---|
| 43 | |
---|
| 44 | An error is report and the line is simply remove from the output. Information |
---|
| 45 | will be missing but at least the C<NIS> database will still works |
---|
| 46 | |
---|
| 47 | =item truncate |
---|
| 48 | |
---|
| 49 | The member list is truncate to not exceed the 4096 byte limit (member list is |
---|
| 50 | sorted alphabetically). |
---|
| 51 | |
---|
| 52 | =item split |
---|
| 53 | |
---|
| 54 | Group members are split into severals differents groups having same C<GID>. This |
---|
| 55 | mean for last users checking they are in the groups will fails but permission |
---|
| 56 | checks on filesystem will still apply correctly. |
---|
| 57 | |
---|
| 58 | The ouput look like this: |
---|
| 59 | |
---|
| 60 | group:500:x:aa,bb,cc |
---|
| 61 | group_1:500:x,dd,ee,ff |
---|
| 62 | |
---|
[1123] | 63 | =item encoding |
---|
| 64 | |
---|
| 65 | Specify the encoding of the file. Default is C<iso-8859-15>. |
