The Nyms Database holds nym records for all nyms on the freedom system. The nym server serves up the contents of the nym database. Nyms can be nuked or deleted, which destroys their record in the nyms database. Backup copies of these nym records are stored in a database of nuked nyms. These database have the same format and share most access information.
Always use the supplied library to access the datbase. If the required functionality is not there, then extend the library. The nyms databases are accessible through a database server, so you should use the remote config file.
(NB: "xxx" is either "local" or "remote")
