Things I do when debugging NIS:
* very "domainname" is set correctly
* ypwhich (you said this works)
* ypcat passwd (if this works then NIS is working fine, but maybe
nsswitch.conf is messed up)
* make sure my netmask is set properly, or that ypinit -c was used
with the IP address of the master or a working slave
* double check nsswitch.conf
* restart nscd if necessary
My first guess here is that maybe the domainname is not set properly?

Hi all,
I've got a global zone which acts as a NIS master. It should also share out
the users home directories. On the master, the auto_master map looks like this:
#+auto_master
/net -hosts -nosuid,nobrowse
/home auto_home -nobrowse
And the auto_home map looks like this:
#+auto_home
* Master:/export/home/&
These are copied from the Solaris 10 Admin Part 2 books from the Sun course. I
presumed this still applied for OpenSolaris.
My problem is that my client zone can see the master (ypwhich knows what the
master is), but it won't recognise users. If I try to SSH to the zone from the
glabal-zone as my main user, it does work:
$ ssh ad...@testzone
The authenticity of host 'testzone (10.0.1.2)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 7b:65:40:53:08:db:2e:1c:ca:96:5e:e5:9b:5b:72:5e.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'testzone,10.0.1.2' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

I have just double checked, and the nsswitch.conf in the client zone is set to
use NIS. I'm a bit stumped...
Many thanks for any help,
Ben
