Greetings one and all. I have a couple of questions about sssd, from 
various places.

1. "How long should nss_sss cache negative cache hits before asking the 
back end again?" (from NSS config options in the sssd.conf man page)

I don't quite get how you query the cache for something and cache the 
results, unless there are two caches.

2. Are the cache and other option's values specified in seconds? I've 
seen values of 15, 120, and 600, but I'm green enough with this sort of 
thing to ask to make sure.

thanks
