Package: libnss-pgsql2 (1.4.0debian-5)

[ Source: libnss-pgsql  ]

NSS module for using PostgreSQL as a naming service

This module works as a replacement for the flat file databases /etc/passwd, /etc/group etc. It is a plugin to glibc's name service switch.

The module uses tables in a PostgreSQL database to store user, group, and shadow information. The module can be configured to use custom queries to retrieve it's information from a database. The module allows to separate the configuration for shadow information from group and user information to restrict access to shadow information to privileged users (i.e. root or the shadow group).
