The client seems to observe that yppasswd is running, but fails to get

Hi all,
I'm using sid's nis package. I noticed that when changing a password
using yppasswd, it seems to truncate the password, even if one keys in a
password that consists of say 12 characters.
So after the password is changed (password = 1234567890ab), i can log

I have just installed NIS on my network to keep passwords (among other
things) in sync between machines. Users should now use yppasswd to change
the passwords on the client machines. Would it be safe to rm

Hi,
I have a small network of machines with one of them
acting as the nis master. Currently it looks like
using the "passwd" program on the master will change
the password file but not update the nis map. I seem
to recall long ago that the nis installation made passwd
