Ok, two problems.. the first, this may be a stupid question, but when I
use the pw useradd command, it adds the user to /var/yp/master.passwd,
which is what I want, but after it does this, I cant change the password
(because it doesn't have one?) im not sure how to go about this. Is there
an easier way to do this?

second, im running an openbsd box as a mail server, nis works fine, but I
add +:::::::::/sbin/nologin, and when I test it, it
says.. su: /sbin/nologin : no such file or directory, when in fact the 
file does exist. Now, I realize this is probably an openbsd problem, but I
thought id ask, just in case someone could tell me what was up.

Thanks, 
jason
