Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2019-e36c63d3d2
2019-12-05 02:16:00.257179
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : nss_wrapper
Product : Fedora EPEL 7
Version : 1.1.7
Release : 3.el7
URL :
https://cwrap.org/
Summary : A wrapper for the user, group and hosts NSS API
Description :
There are projects which provide daemons needing to be able to create, modify
and delete Unix users. Or just switch user ids to interact with the system e.g.
a user space file server. To be able to test that you need the privilege to
modify the passwd and groups file. With nss_wrapper it is possible to define
your own passwd and groups file which will be used by software to act correctly
while under test.
If you have a client and server under test they normally use functions to
resolve network names to addresses (dns) or vice versa. The nss_wrappers allow
you to create a hosts file to setup name resolution for the addresses you use
with socket_wrapper.
To use it set the following environment variables:
LD_PRELOAD=libuid_wrapper.so
NSS_WRAPPER_PASSWD=/path/to/passwd
NSS_WRAPPER_GROUP=/path/to/group
NSS_WRAPPER_HOSTS=/path/to/host
This package doesn't have a devel package cause this project is for
development/testing.
