A newer version of ypbind should fix this problem. This authentication failure is also present in RH 6.1. By default, 'login' uses the PAM module 'pam_pwdb.so'. In order to use C2 enabled NIS, one must edit /etc/pwdb.conf so that the 'nis' entries read 'decnis'. This is documented /usr/doc/pwdb-xxx. /\/elson |
