Configuring many users for NIS

[Stephen R Laniel]

I probably will soon have to configure a bunch of machines
to run LDAP or NIS. For the sake of this email, let's assume
it's NIS. I've done NIS for a few machines before; it
involves pointing each machine to the same NIS server IP.
I'd prefer not to have to do this again, and I assume I
don't have to: there must be a way to configure many
machines at once to use the same NIS server without manually
configuring each one, right? What does one do?
