Hello,

I've setup NIS on my system and everything seems to work except 
yppasswd & login.  On the NIS server machine I can use yppasswd to
change my password and it works fine.  On the client machines,  I
can't even login.  The clients claim not to know any of the user names
valid on the server.   BTW:ypcat commands work fine from all clients.

I'm running 4/12 SNAP with the GENERIC kernel as unpacked from the
bindist.  

There must be something simple I missed in the sysconfig or elsewhere.
Any ideas?


Thanks,
