shadow over NIS
Seems completely broken!!!!
Everything looks just fine, but every user can ypcat shadow.byname.
i.e. - no shadow, no batich...
Anyone knows how to remedy this terrible situation?! I would hate to give
up the convenience of NIS, but wouldn't tolerate this insecurity.
Alternatively - what are your thoughts regarding a way to go around the
problem? (I'm thinking about something like using NIS for passwd, but
transferring shadow over ssh every time yppush is done, and specifying
shadow: files in nsswitch.conf).
Any ideas will be most welcome.
[I'm using Debian 2.0, nis-3.2.1-3 on all hosts in the network.]
