I have been having difficulty in using ssh to contact the clients, and I believe
it is because of a faulty NIS installation.  I've solved several (thousand)
errors which were mostly my fault, and now am down to what I believe is the
final error.  Upon running ssh to a client, I get the response:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] yp]# ssh node001
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).


I edited the Makefile for ypserv to start at UID and GID 0, and I verified that
root is the passwd.byname file with ypcat.  I also tried ssh'ing with a user of
UID/GID 501, and that didn't work.  Since ssh is responding, I think it is
related to NIS not being set up correctly.

My actual question:

How can I verify that the user database is actually being used on the client? 
ie, how can I verify that ypbind is working correctly?
