Description: Micro Name Service Caching Daemon
A daemon which handles passwd, group and host lookups for running
programs and caches the results for the next query. You only need
this package if you are using slow Name Services like LDAP, NIS or
NIS+.
.
This particular NSCD is a complete rewrite of the GNU glibc nscd
which is a single threaded server process which offloads all NSS
lookups to worker children; cache hits are handled by the parent,
and only cache misses start worker children, making the parent immune
to resource leaks, hangs, and crashes in NSS libraries.
.
It should mostly be a drop-in replacement for existing installs using
nscd.
