Hi all,

I have a network running (mainly) Debian Sarge on both i386 and Sparc.
This network uses NIS (currently) for user/password authentication. If I
change the password for a user with yppasswd it's all fine, if, however, I
use  the passwd command I get:

 passwd: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.

Is this expected behaviour?

I have changes my nsswitch.conf file to read

passwd:         files nis
group:          files nis
shadow:         files nis

As discovered in a previous posting to the Debian list...

Cheers,



Pete.
