Description Aoife Moloney 2026-08-19 14:30:00 UTC
This is a tracking bug for Change: Authselect: Remove NIS Profile
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Authselect_Remove_NIS_Profile

Authselect currently ships four profiles local, sssd, winbind and nis. This change suggest removing the nis profile from authselect - it will no longer be possible to configure nsswitch.conf for NIS with authselect using "authselect select nis" but NIS will still be available on the system and users will be able to configure their nsswitch.conf to use NIS with custom authselect profile or manually.

If you encounter a bug related to this Change, please do not comment here. Instead create a new bug and set it to block this bug.
