[edit] Incorrect reference to Network Information Service

This statement:

NIS is used for centralised Authentication. NIS shares all NIS users' home directories using NFS and we can access any NIS users from any client in the network.

appears to refer a different meaning of NIS: Network Information Service rather than Network information system. I suggest re-wording the paragraph as:

If you are looking for the "Yellow Pages" (YP) client-server directory service protocol from Sun Microsystems, see Network Information Service.
