Hi All, I'm trying to implement NIS and I'm stuck. I've set up the server on our RedHat machine and the client on my Debian box.
When I run ypcat I get the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ypcat passwd andrew.dixon:$1$h7CPc4pd$WilaTSJaZOPgHfvhqwVnJ.:11424:11424::/home/andrew.dixon:/bin/bash ming.gao:$1$eYE/v93N$X8a4bjprJCPYvI6/efDGB/:11423:11423::/home/ming.gao:/bin/bash mike.wilson:$1$KXvcabWc$SHuCdrhC00VP4yAbTzYW..:11422:11422::/home/mike.wilson:/bin/bash brad.kemp:$1$aSXA.ncX$93r3dg1PQ9azJtady8iAq/:502:502::/home/brad.kemp:/bin/bash and when I run $ypmatch andrew.dixon passwd: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ypmatch andrew.dixon passwd andrew.dixon:$1$h7CPc4pd$WilaTSJaZOPgHfvhqwVnJ.:11424:11424::/home/andrew.dixon:/bin/bash The problem is that when I try to login with the username andrew.dixon on my Debian box the login fails. It does fail differently then if I just give it a garbage login so I do believe that it is accessing the maps in some way. The RedHat server is also running shadow password which I know can cause trouble for NIS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Andy
