Work is in progress at this time to provide this functionality into
NetBSD-current.  Hopefully it will be available in the main branch
in the near future.

Initially, at least the following databases and sources will be
supported:
	database	available sources
	--------	-----------------
	hosts		files, nis, dns
	passwd		files, nis, dns (hesiod), compat
	group		files, nis, dns (hesiod), compat
	netgroup	files, nis
	shells		files, nis, dns (hesiod)

Luke.
