Fournier" To: current@freebsd.org Subject: NIS problem Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi... I'm not sure if its something I'm forgetting to run, or if its a bug somewhere, but I can't seem to get login's working on my -current machine with NIS running. I've set the appropriate settings in sysconfig, and am running ypbind -s on that machine, but try as I might, I can't login to that machine unless the user entry is in the password file on that machine. If I run chsh userid, it will grab the NIS data though. Someone asked if maybe I had md5 instead of des encryption installed, so that the encryption mechanisms are different, but an md5 encrypted password is a substantially "longer" string then a des encrypted one, so as far as I can see, both are using des. The ypserver is a -stable box, if that means anything? I know there were some changes recently to -current's des, but I wouldn't have assumed that those would have affected it in such a way as to produce this sort of problem...would it? Thanks... Marc G.
