guix-daemon --help shows that that command line parameter is indeed --no-substitutes. If it is enabled in the daemon, you can still disable it selectively when running a command such as guix build --no-substitutes hello (and similarly for other commands), but not the other way round: If the daemon does not accept substitutes, this cannot be overridden by a user. To show how the daemon was started, you can run (as root or as a normal user): ps -ef | grep guix-daemon I get /gnu/store/hjg036lfdkc26allhcxa0dffx1yiafqx-guix-1.4.0-16.aeb4943/bin/guix-daemon --build-users-group guixbuild --max-silent-time 3600 --timeout 86400 --log-compression gzip --discover=no --substitute-urls https://ci.guix.gnu.org https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org which also shows where substitutes are taken from. Notice that substitutions may still fail if the ACL (the public keys of places from which substitutes are accepted) is not set up; but I think this is indicated by an error message when running a command.
