When NIS (or whatever Duke's using) goes bad then nobody
can login.  It never seems to go down for very long, minutes
or hours.  Nobody's been able to figure out why.  Hunter
thinks it may be correlated with load, but it's hard for
me to say as I tend to load the system when logged in.

It's not been enough of a problem for me to write
a deamon to watch for the problem and log it along with
whatever else may be related.
