keyserv and publickey Entries in the Name Service Switch
 | Caution - You must restart the keyserv daemon after you make a change to the name service switch in order for the changes to take effect. |
The keyserv daemon reads the publickey properties in the name service switch only when keyserv is started. If you change the name service switch properties, keyserv does not register the changes until the keyserv daemon is restarted by using svcadm refresh svc:/network/rpc/keyserv:default. This command must be run after the properties have been changed and the name-service/switch service has been refreshed so that the property changes are loaded into the SMF repository.
