'RELENG_5_3_0_RELEASE'.
This commit was manufactured to restore the state of the 5.3-RELEASE image.
= Implement name service switch modules (NSS modules). NSS modules2003-04-17T14:14:22ZJacques Vidrinenectar@FreeBSD.org2003-04-17T14:14:22Zurn:sha1:46d93063837e3149b3834e488ddef3befd03b601
may be built into libc (`static NSS modules') or dynamically loaded
via dlopen (`dynamic NSS modules'). Modules are loaded/initialized
at configuration time (i.e. when nsdispatch is called and nsswitch.conf
is read or re-read).
= Make the nsdispatch(3) core thread-safe.
= New status code for nsdispatch(3) `NS_RETURN', currently used to
signal ERANGE-type issues.
= syslog(3) problems, don't warn/err/abort.
= Try harder to avoid namespace pollution.
= Implement some shims to assist in porting NSS modules written for
the GNU C Library nsswitch interface.

Add nsswitch support. By creating an /etc/nsswitch.conf file, you can2000-09-06T18:16:48ZJacques Vidrinenectar@FreeBSD.org2000-09-06T18:16:48Zurn:sha1:248aee623cc3e95cadc710fe1668269b841e171b
configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.
= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.
