Abstract:
A method of maintaining Network Information Service (NIS) maps where modifying information about any of the network entities described by the NIS maps requires only incremental update of the NIS maps instead of full NIS map regeneration. A further method of detecting when network entity records on a network directory server change so that NIS map updates are necessary.
