Re: NIS on Linux + Solaris



This may not help you, but if backwards compatitibily is not required with
an existing NIS network, I would suggest using LDAP instead of NIS. This
works on both Linux and Solaris (using PAM and nsswitch). It is a very
elegant solution, and IMHO much more maintainable than NIS.
