I'm really tired (been crabbing all day and got 2 crabs, 7 pots, 5 hour soak,
got 2, sucked).
And I know very little about LDAP.
But I did do a sort of vnode/file system switch answer to this problem,
we called it lamed, I'll try and find you some docs in the morning.
We built a server that could take requests in any form and spit back
the answer. My goal was to have a 200mhz MIPS server serve up this info
for the entire state of California, perform well, and work across reboots.
We pretty much did it.

Does anyone have any experience with YP / NIS / NIS+ /
LDAP as a central

I'm contemplating playing with them for historical reasons.
As such, I'm wondering what the current evolution is for a pure Unix
environment. Read: No Active Directory. Is there a current central
directory service for Unix (or Linux)? If so, what is it?
I'm guessing it's LDAP combined with Kerberos, but I'm not sure.
