Despite the likelihood that Sun will continue to "support" (as in not stop
it working) NIS and NIS+ for years, it's worth remembering that Sun is now
bundling Netscape^WiPlanet^WSunONE apps, including Directory server, with
Solaris and supporting them as Sun products.
I haven't seen a Solaris 9 install or if they've made using LDAP with PAM
automagic, or at least easy.
