How to get LDAP support in NSS/compat?


How hard would it be to modify the compat NSS/PAM module to support
LDAP?  In solaris, this is done using these lines in nsswitch.conf:

  passwd:     compat files
  passwd_compat: ldap

More information about how this work on Solaris:

I've looked in the compat module implementation, and it seem to be
locked to NIS methods at the moment.
