Does anybody YP-serve their passwd entries from one machine and their group
entries from another?  If so, why?  I've heard of one site that does this
for load balancing, but I'm assuming that they're the exception.

Please reply to me.  Then if anyone asks me to, I'll summarize to the net.

Thanks very much.
