Thanks. Looks like I need to find a good NIS instruction manual...

Thanks

I think NIS is the simplest to get up and running.  It doesn't offer the
security features NIS+ does however, but if your network is internal-only,
this may not be an issue.

I think the next logical step beyond NIS would be LDAP.  Bypass NIS+
completely...
