    My understanding is that Apple is dumping NetInfo in favor of Open
    Directory (which is based on LDAP). Hopefully they have proper
    access-control mechanisms built into that. I can understand their
    unwillingness to spend time fixing a subsystem that is going away
    soon.

    Does Mac OS X Server exhibit the same behavior? Maybe the XServe
    argument is a moot point.
