The /var/adm/messages in Solaris seem to log more system messages/errors compared to /var/log/messages in Linux.
I checked the log level in Linux and they seem OK.
Is there any other log file that contains the messages or is it just that Linux doesn't log great many things? (2 Replies)

NSCD(8) Linux Programmer's Manual NSCD(8)
NAME
/usr/sbin/nscd - name service cache daemon
DESCRIPTION
Nscd is a daemon that provides a cache for the most common name service requests. The default configuration file, /etc/nscd.conf, deter-
mines the behavior of the cache daemon. See nscd.conf(5).
Nscd provides caching for accesses of the passwd(5), group(5), and hosts(5) databases through standard libc interfaces, such as getpw-
nam(3), getpwuid(3), getgrnam(3), getgrgid(3), gethostbyname(3), and others.
There are two caches for each database: a positive one for items found, and a negative one for items not found. Each cache has a separate
TTL (time-to-live) period for its data. Note that the shadow file is specifically not cached. getspnam(3) calls remain uncached as a
result.
OPTIONS
--help will give you a list with all options and what they do.
NOTES
The daemon will try to watch for changes in configuration files appropriate for each database (e.g. /etc/passwd for the passwd database or
/etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf for the hosts database), and flush the cache when these are changed. However, this will happen only after
a short delay (unless the inotify(7) mechanism is available and glibc 2.9 or later is available), and this auto-detection does not cover
configuration files required by nonstandard NSS modules, if any are specified in /etc/nsswitch.conf. In that case, you need to run the
following command after changing the configuration file of the database so that nscd invalidates its cache:
$ nscd -i <database>
