I use ldap for this purpose, on a machine with 300 users and I had to
increase the number of filedescriptors to 16000 to make things work but
now everiting is fine. I've also tried nscd but it didn't worked (atfer a
while no user was able to autenticate). Does anyone know where I can find
the source code of nscd?
