Hello Sam,

libnss is an internal glibc library, used by glibc's getpw() and getgr() functions. You specify which modules you want to resolve userids and groupids by setting up your nsswitch.conf correctly.

It is setup correctly like in the documentation described and it works for local login, ssh and others. Authentication works in courier too, but there is the "nss" part missing. This is, why I have aked here.

If you set up nsswitch.conf to use pgsql, all applications, including authdaemon, should end up querying pgsql for all userid/groupid lookups.

This is theorie and praxis.

All other programs are working but curier... :-/

I am fighting around with this thing since last year.

First I had a little bit different sructure of PostgreSQL database and I was thinking, there is a problem with it and courier does something I do not know. After adoption the ORIGINAL documentation of "libnss-pgsql" and "libpam-pgsql1" I have encountered the same problem.

So, now I do not know what to do...
