NIS+netgroups and RedHat 5.2
Hi,
I am having problems convincing RedHat 5.2 to behave the way all other
Unix machines behave, when NIS is concerned.
I have tried various setups, in which /etc/nsswitch.conf had:
passwd: files nis
group: files nis
netgroup: nis
or
passwd: compat
group: compat
netgroup: nis
In all test cases, I tried adding either a:
+@some_netgroup:x:0:0::::
or a:
+@some_netgroup::0:0::::
or a:
+@some_netgroup::::::
or a:
+@some_netgroup
I read the faqs and docs that come with RedHat (ypbind faqs, pam faqs,
yp-utils faqs). They specify that it should work, but it doesn't. `+'
entries only work if I am giving a +user entry, such as:
+ariel:x:::::
or:
+::::::
Anyone has experience with it ?
Btw, glibc is 2.0.7, and I tried ypbind-3.3-9 and 3.3-11.
Thanks,
--Ariel
