Replacement for nss_ldap

An alternative to nss_ldap using an ldap based NIS/YP server.

This is a UNIX daemon providing NIS services with a modular backend interface. The current focus is the development of an LDAP module for the backend data source.

This daemon was and is being written in order to migrate a large install base of UNIX systems utilizing NIS to an LDAP based solution, eventually facilitating a migration of all corporate services that rely on similar data to LDAP.

This and future LDAP related tools are being released under the BSD License with advertising clause.
