Goal

This procedure provides a short example that demonstrates how a new user entry may become added to NIS+ and how a user entry may get removed from NIS+.

Oracle Solaris version 10 is the latest version of Solaris that provides the feature of NIS+ Naming Service.
This feature does not exist anymore in Oracle Solaris 11 and also won't exist in any future version of Oracle Solaris.
