===
Puppet module to manage nscd, Linux's Name Service Cache Daemon.
Recommend reading the man page, NSCD.CONF(5). This module allows for parameterization of all options specified in the man page.
The module assumes that you want to set enable-cache to true for each of the services (passwd, group, hosts, and services). If this is not the case, you can disable the cache on a per service basis.
To use this module simply include nscd
===
Compatibility
This module officially supports the platforms listed in the
metadata.json. It does not fail on unsupported platforms and has been
known to work on many, many platforms since its creation in 2013.
- Amazon Linux 2015
- Amazon Linux 2016
- Amazon Linux 2017
- Debian 6
- EL 5
- EL 6
- EL 7
- EL 8
- Solaris 10
- Suse 10
- Suse 11
- Suse 12
- Suse 15
- OpenSuse 13.1
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Compatibility with Dell Authentication Services
When using nscd in combination with Dell Authentication Services (QAS/VAS) [1] it is recommended to turn off caching of passwd and groups.

Parameters
All numbers should be type cast as strings. Global options for nscd.con can be accessed as parameters, with the dashes changed to underscores. Each per service option can be accessed as parameters and follow the naming scheme of <service>_<option> with the dashed changed to underscores. So enable-cache for the passwd service is available as passwd_enable_cache. The default values follow that of the man page, unless otherwise noted.

Reference
Table of Contents
Classes
nscd: Class to manage nscd, Linuxs Name Service Cache Daemon.
Recommend reading the man page, NSCD.CONF(5). This module allows for parameterization of all options specified in the man page.
The module assumes that you want to set enable-cache to true for each of the services (passwd, group, hosts, and services). If this is not the case, you can disable the cache on a per service basis.
To use this module simply include ::nscd
