/* 
 * 	This file defines the format for a NIS object in RPC language.
 * It is included by the main .x file and the database access protocol
 * file. It is common because both of them need to deal with the same
 * type of object. Generating the actual code though is a bit messy because
 * the nis.x file and the nis_dba.x file will generate xdr routines to 
 * encode/decode objects when only one set is needed. Such is life when
 * one is using rpcgen.
 *
 * Note, the protocol doesn't specify any limits on such things as
 * maximum name length, number of attributes, etc. These are enforced
 * by the database backend. When you hit them you will no. Also see
 * the db_getlimits() function for fetching the limit values.

 * integer size, followed by the useful data. The answer is, when the 
 * server doesn't recognize the type returned it treats it as opaque data. 
 * And the definition for opaque data is {int size; char *data;}. In this
 * way, servers and utility routines that do not understand a given type
 * may still pass it around. One has to be careful in setting
 * this variable accurately, it must take into account such things as
 * XDR padding of structures etc. The best way to set it is to note one's
 * position in the XDR encoding stream, encode the structure, look at the
 * new position and calculate the size.
