You sound like me, Huck, I need to have NIS because I have a bunch of
servers splitting the load, but as of now do not *need* LDAP.  It's way up
on my want list, but for this school year, NIS will do just fine.

The "magic tool" for me is pgina.xpasystems.com -- it allows me to
authenticate users logging into windows from my linux box (PAM auth) so I
don't need LDAP at all.  Again, I want it, but don't need it yet.
