Hello world,
I am trying to use NIS groups in my /etc/hosts.equiv file,
but they don't seem to be working. Since there is no man-
page for hosts.equiv, I thought I'd ask if someone knows
more about this -- is it a bug, a missing feature, or am I
overlooking something simple?
This is with FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE, and NIS works just
fine with the passwd and group files.
Gerhard
