about libnss-pgsql2

Detailed description
According to mira(IRC), fusionforge is expected to useing nsswitch to authoauthenticate users instead of create real shell users. And cronjob auth_unix.php is not referenced. But when installing fusionforge through rpm, it doesn't require libnss-pgsql2. And "src/utils/install-nsspgsql.sh" which create/modify "/etc/libnss-pgsql.conf" is also not run.

Date: 2012-04-02 16:31 Sender: Alain Peyrat Default installation mode on RPM is based on http access. This mode does not require local accounts nor ssh access. No shell users => No need for accounts => No nsswitch stuff.
Date: 2012-04-03 01:43 Sender: Coiby Xu You mean 5.2 only support http access by default? But git doesn't support pushing by HTTP access method which means ssh access need to be enabled, am I right?
Date: 2012-04-03 06:15 Sender: Alain Peyrat It possible to access a Git repository using a webDAV access or better using the Smart HTTP Transport. See: http://progit.org/2010/03/04/smart-http.html for an example.
