nsswitch is the name service switch, to be found, for example, in
Solaris:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=nsswitch.conf&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=SunOS+5.5.1&format=html

irs is a similar thing ("Information Retrieval Service") and is included
in the bind distribution. See /usr/src/contrib/bind/lib/irs .
