 * the nis.x file and the nis_dba.x file will generate xdr routines to 
 * encode/decode objects when only one set is needed. Such is life when
 * one is using rpcgen.
 *
 * Note, the protocol doesn't specify any limits on such things as
 * maximum name length, number of attributes, etc. These are enforced
 * by the database backend. When you hit them you will no. Also see
 * the db_getlimits() function for fetching the limit values.

 * And the definition for opaque data is {int size; char *data;}. In this
 * way, servers and utility routines that do not understand a given type
 * may still pass it around. One has to be careful in setting
 * this variable accurately, it must take into account such things as
 * XDR padding of structures etc. The best way to set it is to note one's
