ONCplus B.11.31.09.01 Release Notes HP-UX 11i v3 (September 2010)

• Ipnodes Support
Ipnodes is the new map that stores IPv6 information. Ipnodes acts as the new hosts database
for IPv6 information. NIS provides support for ipnodes using the /etc/nsswitch.conf
file.
• Alternate Directory for passwd File
Users can now specify a directory other than the default /etc directory where NIS must
look for the passwd file. This feature enhances the security of the system, as information
regarding this alternate directory is known only to the administrator.
