I'm not sure why you believe this is an issue in NIS? Note that the nis package is only responsible for binding to the NIS server, the enitre authentication path is taken care of by pam_unix which is part of glibc. The most likely culprit here would seem to be a glibc issue or a local misconfiguration caused during the upgrade. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
