I'm in the LDAP world for 20+ years now. I don't know any deployment where services map is delivered via LDAP (even though RFC 2307 defines the schema and nss_ldap and nss-pam-ldap aka nslcd support services map). It would also be pretty stupid to do that.
Depends how you distribute your software. If you install the software on every single machine: ok. If you, like we did at university, distribute the software via NFS, you don't want to mess around with /etc/services on every single of the 5000 machines, you want to add the necessary entries for the software in one central place.
Well, today we have config management to distribute fairly constant files to thousands of systems. Ciao, Michael. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
