Tried this, but it didn't work. :( > Do Digital UNIX and FreeBSD use the same format for netgroups (the > 'COMPATIBILTY' note on the manpage)? Yes.

There is one Digital UNIX slave server, and the Digital UNIX clients insist on using it as their server, while the FreeBSD clients insist on using the master server as their server. I can use ypcat and ypmatch with the netgroup map just fine however. > -- > Crist J.
