Hi, I'm setting up NIS for my home network using OpenBSD on the server-side. However, when I try to make changes (ie. to the passwords) on the client side (Gentoo Linux) it responds with an error (without any information on what that error is). Upon attempting to do the same operation on the OpenBSD box, it responds with an error telling me "Couldn't change YP password information.".
Am I understanding correctly that I am supposed to be using chsh -y? chsh without the -y only changes the local data without modifying the NIS-stored data. -- Thanks, Lachlan
