Hi, I've written a Perl script and some supporting configuration files that allow you to continue to use ypwhich, ypcat and ypmatch in an environment where your NIS maps are actually coming through LDAP with the RFC2307 schema. Your requests are converted into the appropriate ldapsearch queries on-the-fly, and the results converted back to the expected format: http://sf.net/projects/yp2ldap The arguments and output from my replacement tools are designed to be fully compatible with the NIS originals. This is useful for us as it means our legacy scripts that use the yp tools can continue to be used in an LDAP environment with no changes required. Are you interested in including this functionality in Fedora? I've had one request for this already.
