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.
