I think your greatest concern would be password encryption.
NIS Does not encrypt passwords when transferred on the LAN, but NIS+/NYS
do.
Why do you have to use NIS?

Hi list.
I'm going to run a NIS server and clients on my LAN.
As you probably know NIS is not secure almost at all.
If anyone has any idea how to make it more secure pls tell me.
(Running a NIS+ is not much of a sulotion...)
I think to put the NIS daemon in the inetd.conf and to use the
hosts.allow/deny in order to increase the security.
Thanks,
Mike
