Use a commercial UNIX for serving NIS masters and slaves and NFS.
Solaris and AIX should be up to it. Lots of versions of the Linux
kernel are just plain broken for serving NFS. I'm not confident that
they're implementation of NIS is any better. I know Solaris' version
works and has for many years.
