NIS in Linux



Hi, everyone.

I'm trying to set up NIS in Linux.

Everything's pretty much set up (no need to build anything - the
binaries come with slackware), and typing 'ypcat passwd' on a client
gives me the NIS server's passwd file. The only thing not working
is the fact that I can't actually login to the client with an
account specified in the server.

I've included +:*:0:0::: at the end of the client's passwd
and +:*:0: at the end of the client's /etc/group. 'ypcat passwd'
works (so ypbind is ok).

Does anyone have any ideas?
