Subject: Re: [netatalk-admins] NIS authentication

it was always my understanding that netatalk either used libc or pam to do
all authentication (depending on compile options) and since both support
NIS this shouldn't be a problem. Please let me know if I'm wrong, since I
will be doing the same soon.
