Summary     : Berkeley DB NSS module
Description :
The Berkeley DB NSS module provides an alternative means for storing
configuration information traditionally kept in several plain-text
files in `/etc' (e.g. `/etc/passwd').  The module uses the Berkeley DB
Library to store this information in several database files in
`/var/db' (e.g. `/var/db/passwd.db').  Using these databases can lead
to a considerable speedup if the files in `/etc' are large (e.g. on a
system with a lot of accounts).  Currently the module support the
`aliases', `ethers', `group', `netgroup', `protocols', `passwd',
`rpc', `services' and `shadow' databases.
