Hi,

I'm trying to set up a yp/NIS system so that users can login into any
machine with only one user account (login in by telnet, ftp, or other
services) with their home directories mounted over nfs.  I'm having
problems with the authentication part.  There appears to be no PAM module
for NIS, therefore wu-ftpd, telnetd and others can't authenticate the
user.  Passwd via NIS and chpass works just fine (if you are root, since
the user can't log in on the remote computer).  I've tried searching for
instructions, finding none.  Could someone please help?
