Hi folks,
I just noticed cron doesn't work nicely when running a system built
without NIS, since it won't allow you to send emails:

According to various sources, this can be fixed by properly
configuration your nsswitch.conf. Now my question is, how should
nsswitch.conf be adjusted? The src.conf manual page says this:
If set, you might need to adopt your nsswitch.conf(5) and remove
‘nis’ entries.
That sort of seems to imply that you can just remove these lines:
group_compat: nis
passwd_compat: nis
services_compat: nis
But on the other hand, nsswitch.conf says it will default to `nis'
anyway. So I suspect the lines shouldn't be removed, but changed to
`files', right? Maybe we should consider modifying the configuration
file accordingly?
