Website: http://sources.redhat.com/glibc/
License: GPL
Vendor: Scientific Linux CERN, http://cern.ch/linux
Description:
Nss_db is a set of C library extensions which allow Berkeley Databases
to be used as a primary source of aliases, ethers, groups, hosts,
networks, protocol, users, RPCs, services, and shadow passwords
(instead of or in addition to using flat files or NIS). Install nss_db
if your flat name service files are too large and lookups are slow.
