NAME
       nslcd - local LDAP name service daemon

SYNOPSIS
       nslcd [options]

DESCRIPTION
       nslcd  is  a  daemon that will do LDAP queries for local processes that
       want to do user, group and other naming lookups (NSS) or	 do  user  au‐
       thentication, authorisation or password modification (PAM).

       nslcd is configured through a configuration file (see nslcd.conf(5)).

       See the included README for information on configuring the LDAP server.

OPTIONS
       nslcd accepts the following options:

       -c, --check
	      Check  if	 the daemon is running.	 This causes nslcd to return 0
	      if the daemon is already running and 1 if it is not.

       -d, --debug
	      Enable debugging mode.  nslcd will not put itself in  the	 back‐
	      ground  and  sends verbose debugging info to stderr.  nslcd will
	      handle connections as usual.  This option is for debugging  pur‐
	      poses  only.  Specify this option multiple times to also include
	      more detailed logging from the LDAP library.

       -n, --nofork
	      Do not fork or daemonise and run nslcd in the foreground.

       --help Display short help and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.

FILES
       /etc/nslcd.conf - the configuration file (see nslcd.conf(5))
