It isn't necessarily something on purpose. Some tools (or me, 
sometimes) assume that they can view/edit /etc/passwd (hatefully, 
indeed), or that /etc/exports can be reliably parsed, and since you 
think, "Hey, it's unix, right?" they'll work.

Speaking of which, anybody know some good ways to have NIS and netinfo 
interact well, or at all?
