I would gues you're using MD5 password hashes on the Linux side. Solaris
is still crypt-only as far a I know. So your password hashes don't match.
Does that match?
We use Solaris and Linux here, too, but the NIS server is Solaris and all
the passwords are set on that side, so we don't have this issue.
It would be good to do MD5 or SHA1 on both ends. Maybe the LDAP PAM auth
plugins can get this... Haven't played with PAM myself yet.
