traditionally handled in a special way. The appropriate files in the
@file{/etc} directory are read but if an entry with a name starting
with a @code{+} character is found NIS is used. This kind of lookup
remains possible by using the special lookup service @code{compat}
and the default value for the three databases above is
@code{compat [NOTFOUND=return] files}.
remains possible if @theglibc{} was configured with the
@code{--enable-obsolete-nsl} option and the special lookup service
@code{compat} is used. If @theglibc{} was configured with the
@code{--enable-obsolete-nsl} option the default value for the three
databases above is @code{compat [NOTFOUND=return] files}. If the
@code{--enable-obsolete-nsl} option was not used the default value
for the services is @code{files}.
For all other databases the default value is
@code{nis [NOTFOUND=return] files}. This solution gives the best
chance to be correct since NIS and file based lookups are used.
For all other databases the default value is @code{files} unless
@theglibc{} was configured with @code{--enable-obsolete-rpc} option, in
which case it the default value is @code{nis [NOTFOUND=return] files}.
@cindex optimizing NSS
A second point is that the user should try to optimize the lookup
