It's my suspicion that it depends how the "aliases" map is built. The patch that "broke" things for the Linux systems includes the comment /* created with 'makedbm -a' */ which makes me suspect that it's dependant on the way the map is constructed. (I couldn't find an online makedbm manpage which documents a -a option) Endian issues should not exist, the protocol below NIS/YP takes care of this. Jeff
