Hello list,
I'm in the process of trying to move a few dozen file servers to FreeBSD. During this I've encountered something confusing with hesiod support. I'm wondering if I should submit a PR for this:
If you install pkg you can install the hesiod utilities with:
pkg install hesiod
Also, in the man page for nsswitch.conf it suggests that hesiod support is included by default with:
dns Internet Domain Name System. “hosts” and ‘networks’ use IN class
entries, all other databases use HS class (Hesiod) entries.
With a proper hesiod.conf file on a system installed from either a 10.3 or 11.0 release iso I get:
# hesinfo rf passwd
hesiod_resolve: hesiod name not found
getent also fails:
# getent passwd rf
So I did some spelunking about the FreeBSD source tree and compiled a custom iso, adding WITH_HESIOD=true to /etc/src.conf. After installing from this media it functions properly:
# hesinfo rf passwd
rf:x:12345:12345:Richard Feltstykket:/home/rf:/bin/bash
# getent passwd rf
rf:x:12345:12345:Richard Feltstykket:/home/rf:/bin/bash
Is this a bug?
Thanks!
Richard
