I am wondering if Solaris with NIS+ can read the NIS shadow password. If it possible, could somebody give me a pointer where should I look? I would really appreciate it. From the Makefile: ... but non-FreeBSD clients (e.g. SunOS, Solaris (without NIS+), IRIX, HP-UX, etc...) will only work properly in 'unsecure' mode.
