  Modified:    usr.bin/passwd  local_passwd.c passwd.c yp_passwd.c
  Log:
  Bug fix: use the use_yp() function in the chpass(1) code to determine
  correctly whether a user is local or NIS (or both, or neither). If you
  have a user that exists locally but not in NIS, passwd(1) could get
  confused and try to submit the password change to NIS. (Fortunately,
  yppasswdd is smart enough to spot the error and reject the change.)
