We use redhat and mandrake at our company and with redhat I can run a simple config program called "authconfig" to configure authentication, you can f.ex configure to use NIS with passwd Is there some kind of similar software available for Mandrake? I have a server that is going to be a samba/printer server with cups. I don't want users accounts and home dirs on that server, only the ability for the users to authenticate and since we are using NIS internally I thought that would be a painless solution. Any comments? So I need to make a /etc/pam.d/system-auth file that accepts NIS. Thanks in advance, Mads
