I'm looking at the feasibility of using ldap instead of NIS and have come 
across something that looks discouraging.  In /etc/hosts.allow and 
/etc/exports, one can specify a netgroup for the client list.  I use this 
feature.  Can I retain this if I switch to ldap?  I've looked on the web.  
There are messages posted which indicate that this will not work.  But the 
postings were all 3-4 years.

Does anyone know?

Ken
