i c what you mean. well in my openldap server that also runs in linux and auth solaris box without a problem, i also have to tell it not to do MD5 which is the first occurence of the password string $1 but that is a setting that i also set in openldap not to do that. so you might need to find that somewhere in nis settings. you might want to look on groups.google.com because i haven't seen any messages on this list about people needing help with nis ever, nor ldap.
