NIS+ and Linux?



Hi,

Is anyone aware of a full implementation of nis+ under linux?

I've read the NIS-HOWTO and looked into the nys package but it lacks the
DES encryption features of nis+. It also a bit old and installing it means
that I'll have to recompile libc. I'm a bit reluctant to do it since it
seens to be written for libc 4.x.x and might break libc 5.

I also need support for shadow password, which the standard NIS
implementation seems to lack.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
