It depends on what server you are refering to. Put the account
information in your DNS files. Then you need to configure each server
to use hesiod info for account information. Depending on the brand of
*nix you are using there may be tools that can change your
nsswitch.conf files and such. Do some googling and you can find the
documents describing the zone file format, they are probably on MIT's
servers somewhere. I can't remember where I originally got them.
I use djbdns rather than bind because I am on a small network and it
is easier to fiddle with. hesiod works just fine in my setup, though
it is a bit slow.
