Bay-LISA						     February 27st.

 
NOTE:  The usual meeting day and time has been changed for the February Meeting,
to accomodate the speaker.  The meeting will take place _one_ week later
at the normal location at DEC.

This month, Chuck McManis, who is the author/architect for NIS+ will speak 
speak on "NIS, how bad is it really?"

As the size of installed networks increases, the design constraints
on network services change. One such service is the ONC NIS service
(formerly Yellow Pages). This talk will begin with a description of
some of the design decisions that went into NIS and how they have
effected operation on current networks. This will be followed by
a description of the changes made to those assumptions when Sun
designed the NIS+ service a completely rewritten version of NIS.
We'll finish up with a description of the implementation of NIS+
and its effect on system administration operations.
