It needs to be possible to tell apart "the nss-resolve module does not exist" (which can happen when running foreign-architecture programs) from "the queried DNS name failed DNSSEC validation" or other errors. So return NOTFOUND for these cases too, and only keep UNAVAIL for the cases where we cannot handle the given address family. This makes it possible to configure a fallback to "dns" without breaking DNSSEC, with "resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns". Add this to the manpage. This does not change behaviour if resolved is not running, as that already falls back to the "dns" glibc module. Fixes #4157

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>nss-resolve</command> is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of the
|
|
GNU C Library (<command>glibc</command>) enabling it to resolve host names via the
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-resolved</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> local network
|
|
name resolution service. It replaces the <command>nss-dns</command> plug-in module that traditionally resolves
|
|
hostnames via DNS.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To activate the NSS module, add <literal>resolve</literal> to the line starting with
|
|
<literal>hosts:</literal> in <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is recommended to place <literal>resolve</literal> early in <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>'
|
|
<literal>hosts:</literal> line (but after the <literal>files</literal> or <literal>mymachines</literal> entries),
|
|
replacing the <literal>dns</literal> entry if it exists, to ensure DNS queries are always routed via
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-resolved</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that <command>nss-resolve</command> will chain-load <command>nss-dns</command> if
|
|
<filename>systemd-resolved.service</filename> is not running, ensuring that basic DNS resolution continues to work
|
|
if the service is down.</para>

<title>Example</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Here is an example <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> file that enables <command>nss-resolve</command>
|
|
correctly:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>passwd: compat mymachines systemd
|
|
group: compat mymachines systemd
|
|
shadow: compat
|
|
|
|
hosts: files mymachines <command>resolve [!UNAVAIL=return]</command> dns
|
|
networks: files
|
|

|
protocols: db files
|
|
services: db files
|
|
ethers: db files
|
|
rpc: db files
|
|
|
|
netgroup: nis</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>This keeps the <command>dns</command> module as a fallback for cases where the <command>nss-resolve</command>
|
|
module is not installed.</para>
