All my NIS maps were historically under RCS (periodically purged by

my LDAP stuff some day (hard to tell when a field changed/got
added/whatever).
The sad part is that you consider this unorthodox.
RCS, mercurial, git, etc... are so cheap to use that there is absolutely no
reason not to use them for NIS, DNS, ldif files etc... I mean unless you hire
those type of admins who never ever make even a single mistake.
Personally I think any machine that needs any tweaking after a rebuild should
have /etc under VC.
