I noticed that NetBSD is switching over to using /etc/nsswitch.conf (like
Slowlaris, PH-UX, etc.). Would it be a good idea to do this for FreeBSD too
(when I first started using FreeBSD, it took me a long time to figure out the
analogous file for hostname lookups was /etc/host.conf) -- it seems
consolidating all that config information would in one place would be a good
thing.

Mike.
