This is a snapshot release of the NIS interface to Perl 5. There are three parts to the interface: the raw component (Net::NIS), the object-oriented component (Net::NIS::Table), and the tied interface (Net::NIS). Unless someone provides strong reason to support the raw or OO components, they will be marked as deprecated and not documented or enhanced (but still supported for backward compatibility).
