From my experience with NIS, it is insecure and Unix-centric. From my
experience with LDAP, it is difficult to configure, but easy to use. I
would suggest trying LDAP. You can use LDAP for authentication, address
books, other things that I'm not thinking of...
If all you want to do is authenticate, maybe someone else will recommend
something easier.
