NAME

       pynslcd - local LDAP name service daemon

SYNOPSIS

       pynslcd [options]

DESCRIPTION

       pynslcd  is  a  daemon that will do LDAP queries for local processes that want to do user,
       group and other naming lookups (NSS) or do user authentication, authorisation or  password
       modification (PAM).

       pynslcd is configured through a configuration file (see nslcd.conf(5)).

       See the included README for information on configuring the LDAP server.

OPTIONS

       pynslcd accepts the following options:

       -c, --check
              Check  if  the daemon is running.  This causes pynslcd to return 0 if the daemon is
              already running and 1 if it is not.

       -d, --debug
              Enable debugging mode.  pynslcd will not put itself in  the  background  and  sends
              verbose  debugging info to stderr.  pynslcd will handle connections as usual.  This
              option is for debugging purposes only.  Specify this option multiple times to  also
              include more detailed logging from the LDAP library.

       -n, --nofork
              Do not fork or daemonise and run pynslcd in the foreground.

       --help Display short help and exit.

       -V, --version
              Output version information and exit.
