NAME

       nss-cache-oslogin, libnss_cache_oslogin.so.2 - UNIX implementation for OS Login Users and Groups with
       local caching.

SYNOPSIS

       libnss_cache_oslogin.so.2

DESCRIPTION

       nss-cache-oslogin is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of the GNU C
       Library (glibc).  This module provides UNIX name resolution from a local cache of users and groups
       configured in the Google Cloud OS Login system.  The "passwd" and "group" services are supported by this
       module.

       To use the NSS module, add "cache_oslogin" to the appropriate service lines in nsswitch.conf.  It is
       recommended to place "cache_oslogin" after any system provided modules and before the "oslogin" module,
       as it is a pass-through cache.
