Description Felix Botner univentionstaff 2014-01-07 12:47:50 CET
UCC uses a local passwd (and group) file instead of libnss-ldap. This file is copied from the ldap/server/name UCS server with univention-ucc-update-nss.

For this to work the ucc integration packages must be installed on the UCS server, because ucc-management-integration contains the listener module that creates the passwd file.

This can be a pain in an ucs@school environment with lots of school dc's and ucc clients. 

If univention-ucc-ucsschool-integration is installed on the UCC clients, ldap/server/name is set to the school dc and univention-ucc-update-nss on the client fails until the ucc-management-integration is installed on (all) school dc's (so that they can provide the passwd file, created by the listener module).

Maybe better to move the listener ucc-nss-passwd.py from UCC to UCS (all dc's). Then 

 (a) univention-ucc-update-nss would always work regardless to which UCS dc 
     ldap/server/name is set and if ucc is installed on that server

 (b) selective replication would work for ucc clients (as the passwd is than
     created and copied from the school dc)
