If all your doing is serving up mount maps or netgroups then ldap is over kill, definitely don't put passwords in nis (or ldap) use kerberos for
those.

A small user base can be handled more easily via nis then ldap you don't
need to put passwords in passwd use kerberos for those.


Maybe it's just me, but I find sentences like the above two to be
terribly confusing since they lack any punctuation to separate the
separables.  Since I am just learning about this area, I need all the
clarity I can get.  Perhaps others are in a similar situation, so,
please use punctuation of some kind - separate lines, commas,
semicolons, etc.

Sigh...

I resist top posting and trim and thread my replies, stay on topic, am polite, all while tapping out on my iPhone display.

But that ain't enough no, now I have to watch my run on sentences!

Sheesh, from now on MHR, your  name will be Grumpy.

So Grumps, if my answers bring up more questions then why not just ask for clarification rather then get all over my poor punctuation?
