-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm nscd.conf
-.Nd "nscd configuration file"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-file
-is used by the
-.Xr nscd 8
-daemon and is read on its startup.
-Its syntax is mostly similar to the
-.Pa nscd.conf
-syntax in
-.Tn Linux
-and
-.Tn Solaris .
-It has some differences, though \[em] see them below.
-.Pp
-Each line specifies either an attribute and a
-.Ar value ,
-or an attribute, a
-.Ar cachename
-and a
-.Ar value .
-Usual cachenames are
-.Dq Li passwd ,
-.Dq Li group ,
-.Dq Li hosts ,
-.Dq Li services ,
-.Dq Li protocols
-and
-.Dq Li rpc .
-You can also use any other
-.Ar cachename
-(for example, if some third-party
-application uses nsswitch).
-.Bl -tag -width indent
-.It Va threads Op Ar value
-Number of threads, which would listen for connections and process requests.
-The minimum is 1.
-The default value is 8.
-.It Va enable-cache Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Cm yes | no
-Enables or disables the cache for specified
-.Ar cachename .
-.It Va positive-time-to-live Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Ar value
-Sets the TTL (time-to-live) for the specified cache in seconds.
-Larger values can increase system's performance, but they also can affect
-the cache coherence.
-The default value is 3600.
-.It Va positive-policy Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Cm fifo | lru | lfu
-The policy that is applied to erase some of the cache elements, when the
-size limit of the given
-.Ar cachename
-is exceeded.
-Possible policies are:
-.Cm fifo
-(first-in-first-out),
-.Cm lru
-(least-recently-used), and
-.Cm lfu
-(least-frequently-used).
-The default policy is
-.Cm lru .
-.It Va negative-time-to-live Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Ar value
-The TTL of the negative cached elements in seconds.
-The larger values can significantly increase system performance in some
-environments (when dealing with files with UIDs, which are not in system
-databases, for example).
-This number should be kept low to avoid the cache coherence problems.
-The default value is 60.
-.It Va negative-policy Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Cm fifo | lru | lfu
-The same as the positive-policy, but this one is applied to the negative
-elements of the given
-.Ar cachename .
-The default policy is fifo.
-.It Va suggested-size Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Ar value
-This is the internal hash table size.
-The value should be a prime number for optimum performance.
-You should only change this value when the number of cached elements is
-significantly (5-10 times) greater than the default hash table size (257).
-.It Va keep-hot-count Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Ar value
-The size limit of the cache with the given
-.Ar cachename .
-When it is exceeded, the policy will be applied.
-The default value is 2048.
-.It Va perform-actual-lookups Oo Ar cachename Oc Op Cm yes | no
-If enabled, the
-.Xr nscd 8
-does not simply receive and cache the NSS-requests results, but performs
-all the lookups by itself and only returns the responses.
-If this feature is enabled, then for the given
-.Ar cachename
-.Xr nscd 8
-will act similarly to the NSCD.
-.Pp
-.Sy NOTE :
-this feature is currently experimental \[em] it supports only
-.Dq Li passwd ,
-.Dq Li group
-and
-.Dq Li services
-cachenames.

-.Sh NOTES
-You can use the
-.Ql #
-symbol at the beginning of the line for comments.
