/*
 * Description (nsdbmgmt.h)
 *
 *	The file describes the interface for managing information in
 *	a Netscape (server) database.  A database is composed of
 *	two (libdbm) DB files.  One of these (<dbname>.db) contains
 *	records indexed by a string key.  These records contain the
 *	primary information in the database.  A second DB file
 *	(<dbname>.id) is used to map an integer id value to a string
 *	key, which can then be used to locate a record in the first file.
 *	The interface for retrieving information from a database is
 *	described in nsdb.h.
 *
 * FUTURE:
 *	Normally the records in the primary DB file will contain the
 *	id values which are used to key the id-to-name DB.  When this
 *	is the case, it is possible to construct the id-to-name DB from
 *	the primary DB file, and an interface is provided to facilitate
 *	this.
