Yes. On most distributions 'adduser' is merely a link to 'useradd'. On

The traditional way to do this is YP (aka NIS). The network database system
exports
/etc/passwd, /etc/group, etc. You have to run an NIS server (there are debian
packages
for NIS) and run NIS client software on the client machines.

Hi,
Talking about /etc/nsswitch.conf:
"/etc/nsswitch.conf" is part of the package "base-files" of bo.
There are no manual pages, however. Is there any program (parts
of the nis package ?) that take care about nsswitch.conf?
Or is it just a sneak preview of a future NYS/NIS+ package?
