Greetings. This should really be posted to a Solaris support venue,
but, well... anyhow.
We have an NIS domain hosted on a Red Hat 7 box. Works great.
Authenticates about twenty workstations, which up to now have also been
Red Hat boxen.
Had to set up a Solaris 8/intel box today. Mostly works fine. Binds to
the NIS domain, mounts NFS volumes, looks good.
BUT, whenever anybody tries to authenticate via NIS, it rejects their
password. "su - <username>" from root works fine. ypcat produces maps
as it's supposed to. UID's all resolve properly in file listings. But
password authentication barfs.
Anybody know what's going on here? Do I need to put magic symbos in
/etc/passwd? (Shouldn't that be a thing of the past by now, or is it
still necessary in non-Linux environments?)
Alternately, anybody got a magic pill that will get all our clients off
Slow Larry and onto Linux or *BSD by, say, 9am CST tomorrow?
