            Bug ID: 29750
           Summary: nsswitch.conf is auto-reloaded
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.36
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: manual
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: mpoliwczak34 at gmail dot com
                CC: mtk.manpages at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

The nsswitch.conf(5) manual says: "Within each process that uses nsswitch.conf,
the entire file is read only once. If the file is later changed, the process
will continue using the old configuration.". That is incorrect, this config
file is auto-reloaded (Refer:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12459)

Sorry, the manual pages are maintained separately, by the man-pages project:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/

I'll see if I can send a patch to the maintainers.
