<para>Note that this option does not alter how the users and groups specified in the configuration files are
resolved. With or without this option, users and groups are always resolved according to the host's user and
group databases, any such databases stored under the specified root directories are not
consulted.</para></listitem>
<para>When this option is used, the libc Name Service Switch (NSS) is bypassed for resolving users
and groups. Instead the files <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and <filename>/etc/group</filename>
inside the alternate root are read directly. This means that users/groups not listed in these files
will not be resolved, i.e. LDAP NIS and other complex databases are not considered.</para></listitem>
