Don't initialize NIS until it is really necessary. Now, in case of network
or NIS server problems, local user can login without a pause.

Also, -Wsomething cleanup.

XOpen says the void setpwent(void) is correct. Also call setpassent(0)
instead of duplicating code, albeit trivial (inspired by NetBSD).

Many places in the code NULL is used in integer context, where
plain 0 should be used. This happens to work because we #define
NULL to 0, but is stylistically wrong and can cause problems

Small yet significant tweaks/cleanups:

- getpwent:
o adjunctbuf should be NUL terminated after copying
o _pw_breakout_yp() needs to know the length of the buffer returned
from YP so it can properly NUL terminate its local buffer.

- getgrent:
o YP buffers should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and NUL terminated.
(Previously they were hardcoded to 1024 bytes.)

- getnetgrent:
o YP data should be copied with snprintf(), not sprintf()

These are 2.2 candidates. I will wait a few days to make sure these don't
break anything and then, if there are no objections, move them to the 2.2
branch.

Add support for detecting and hopefully using the passwd.adjunct.byname
NIS map which is present on SunOS NIS servers with the SunOS C2 security
hack^Woption installed. I'm convinced that the C2 security option restricts
access to the passwd.adjunct.byname map in the same way that I restrict
access to the master.passwd.{byname,buid} maps (checking for reserved ports),
which means that we should be able to handle passwd.adjunct.byname map
correctly.

If _havemaster() doesn't find a master.passwd.byname map, it will now
test for a passwd.adjunct.byname map before defaulting back to the
standard non-shadowed passwd.{byname,byuid} maps. If _pw_breakout_yp()
sees that the adjunct map was found and the password from the standard
maps starts with ##, it will try to grab the correct password field
from the adjunct map. As with the master.passwd maps, this only happens
if the caller is root, so the shadowing feature is preserved; non-root
users just get back ##username as the encrypted password.

Note that all we do is grab the second field from the passwd.adjunct.byname
entry, which is designated to be the real encrypted password. There are
other auditing fields in the entry but they aren't of much use to us.

Also switched back to using yp_order() to probe for the maps (instead
of yp_first()). The original problem with yp_order() was that it barfed
with NIS+ servers in YP compat mode since they don't support the
YPPROC_ORDER procedure. This condition is handled a bit more gracefully
in yplib now: we can detect the error and just punt on the probing.

Very minor tweak:

In __initdb(), a failure to open the local password database is supposed
to result in a warning message being syslog()ed. This warning is only
supposed to be generated as long as the 'warned' flag hasn't been yet;
once the warning is generated, the flag should be set so that the message
is only syslog()ed once. However, while the state of the flag is checked
properly, the flag's state is never changed, so you always get multiple
warnings instead of just one.

NIS cleanups and fixes, the next generation.

getnetgrent.c:

- Catch one bogon that snuck by: in _listmatch(), check for '\0'
rather than '\n'; strings returned from yp_match() are terminated
with a nul, not a newline.

getpwent.c:

- Rip out all of the +inclusion/-exclusion stuff from before and
replace it with something a little less grotty. The main problem
with the old mechanism was that it wasted many cycles processing
NIS entries even after it already knew they were to be exlcuded
(or not included, depending on your pointof view). The highlights
of these changes include:

o Uses an in-memory hash database table to keep track of all the
-@netgroup, -user, and -@group exclusions.

o Tries harder to duplicate the behavior normally obtained when using
NIS inclusions/exclusions on a flat /etc/passwd file (meaning things
come out in much the same order).

o Uses seperate methods for handling getpwent() and getpwnam()/getpwuid()
operations instead of trying to do everything with one general
function, which didn't work as well as I thought it would.

o Uses both getnetgrent() and innetgr() to try to save time where
possible.

o Use only one special token in the local password database
(_PW_KEYYPBYNUM) instead of seperate tokens to mark + and -
entries (and stop using the counter tokens too). If this new
token doesn't exist, the code will make due with the standard
_PW_KEYBYNUM token in order to support older databases that
won't have the new token in them.

All this is an attempt to make this stuff work better in environments
with large NIS passwd databases.

Another tweak/speedup pass:

- Fix buffer overflow problem once and for all: do away with the buffer
copies to 'user' prior to calling _scancaches() and just pass a pointer
to the buffer returned by yp_match()/yp_first()/yp_next()/whatever.
(We turn the first ':' to a NUL first so strcmp() works, then change it
back later. Submitted by Bill Fenner <fenner@parc.xerox.com> and
tweaked slightly by me.

- Give _pw_breakout_yp() the 'more elegant solution' I promised way back when.
Eliminate several copies to static buffers and replace them with just
one copy. (The buffer returned by the NIS functions is at most
YPMAXRECORD bytes long, so we should only need one static buffer of
the same length (plus 2 for paranoia's sake).)

- Also in _pw_breakout_yp(): always set pw.pw_passwd to the username
obtained via NIS regardless of what pw_fields says: usernames cannot
be overridden so we have no choice but to use the name returned by
NIS.

- _Again_ in _pw_breakout_yp(): before doing anything else, check that
the first character of the NIS-returned buffer is not a '+' or '-'.
If it is, drop the entry. (#define EXTRA_PARANOIA 1 :)

- Probe for the master.passwd.* maps once during __initdb() instead
of doing it each time _getyppass() or _nextyppass() is called.

- Don't copy the NIS data buffers to static memory in _getyppass()
and _nextyppass(): this is done in _pw_breakout_yp() now.

- Test against phkmalloc and phkmalloc/2 (TNG!) to make sure we're
free()ing the yp buffers sanely.

- Put _havemaster(), _getyppass() and nextyppass() prototypes under
#ifdef YP. (Somehow they ended up on the wrong side of the #endif.)

- Remove unused variable ___yp_only.

getgrent.c: adjust _nextypgroup() slightly so that it continues processing
the group map after encountering a badly formatted entry.

getpwent.c: same as above for _nextyppass(), and also turn a couple of
sprintf()s into snprintf()s to avoid potential buffer overruns. (The
other day I nearly went mad because of a username in my NIS database
that's actually 9 characters long instead of 8. Stuffing a 9-character
username into an 8-character buffer can do some strange things.)

(This reminds me: I hope somebody's planning to fix the buffer overrun
security hole in syslog(3) before 2.1 ships.)
