Hi,

when i do a 'ls -l /var/mail' (directory imported with NFS), each line
takes about 0.5s to appear.  I think it is caused by very slow NIS
requests.  Is there a way to speed up things ?  The server is a sunos4
machine.

Is this related to this warning in one README file :

      Check your /etc/nsswitch.conf file and make sure that the entries for
      passwd, group, shadow and netgroup look like this:

      passwd:   compat
      group:    compat
      shadow:   compat
      netgroup: nis

      At this moment, libc6 has some troubles with reading netgroup data
      from files. So do not use "db" or "files" in the entry for netgroup,
      all netgroup lookups have to go through the NIS server.

(I did what it suggests.)
