Hello,

I'm trying to set up ldap authentification and nsswitch stuff for freebsd 8.

I configured pam with pam_krb5 for auth and pam_ldap for account
I use nss_ldap for group and password database with sasl on, meaning that 
process with uid 0 bind to ldap with rootbinddn and users process bind with 
their GSSAPI/Kerberos credentials.

Everything works fine.... except that I can't use nss_getgrent_skipmembers in 
nss_ldap.conf. If I set it to yes, users don't have their group set at all 
(only the gid one). This work well with Debian...

We have a very large directory here (about 50 000 active users, 4000 groups, 
some with thousands of members...) so I definitely need freebsd not to lookup 
for every users in every group for each operation...

Else, I haven't found usefull document for setting nscd for very large 
configuration.

thanks in advance and sorry for my english,

Pascal
