My understanding of 'db' is to be a more efficint cache of local /etc/passwd. It's not designed to cache any other entries. But maybe I'm mistaken? You'll need to implement your own cache if you want. I think sys-auth/libnss-cache does something similar when it dumps /etc/passwd.cache. If you have boot-only problem (is that correct?) of username resolution it sounds like you need network online first before trying to resolve external usernames. You might need to ask systemd maintainers and/of respective package maintainers. This is probably something that should either be done upstream or as local configuration. |
