[PLUG] Two passwd files?


I want to use rsync and ssh to push the passwd file (and others) as an alternative to NIS. The question is, is it possible to have a "local" passwd file as an extension to the pushed passwd file? For example, to have a local root account which is only valid on a particular machine?

The config that I will be using is a variation of the approach detailed at http://www.ussg.iu.edu/security/rsync.html
