I have just set up NIS on several of my machines and I am having a little trouble adding a user. If I use adduser the group, shadow and passwd files in /etc are all updated properly but adduser doesn't complete properly properly. It terminates before asking for any information on the user with a message that says that the user doesn't exist and NIS knows nothing about the user. The user is being added to the machine that is the master server.
Is there a different way to add users after NIS is installed? -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
