Some of you probably have seem me asking about this in #debian: I'm trying to setup NIS+ on Debian.. I have a number of machines which I would like to use NIS+ for authentication and also for autofs mapping.. Has anyone actually succeeded in using NIS+ with Debian?
I've currently taken nis-utils.tar.gz from ftp.kernel.org and hacked into it a bit. It's half-working.. it asks for the password twice on login, and autofs doesn't see the auto_master table on NIS+.. Also, if NIS+ is just plainly out of the question, are there any good alternatives to NIS+? Keep in mind that it should provide security like NIS+ (column & row permissions), and work with sun and linux clients.. Michael Janssen - Jamuraa [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
