There is also a problem under Ultrix 2.0 if you run Yellow Pages.  Dlogin
was apparently NOT recompiled with the YP library, and hence you can't do
a dlogin to a machine running YP if you don't actually have an entry in the
passwd file.

Come on, people.  Get it together.

Does anyone know if 2.3 can talk to nameservers?
