Actually you want it in /etc/master.passwd as = "+:::::::::".  If you edit w/vipw though that's what you = get.

And...you'll also want '+' at the bottom of = /etc/group.

And...FYI...if you use FreeBSD as a master for = commercial most commercial Unixes you need to set the UNSECURE flag in = /var/yp/Makefile.

And...as mentioned, you need to make sure your = libcrypt is libdescrypt (assuming your master is using the DES crypt as = well).

Speaking of YP, anyone know why FreeBSD's ypxfrd = isn't liked by Solaris?  My Solaris 2.7 slave always = complains:

        ypxfr: = couldnot get archeron address
        (info) = archeron jumpweb.net group.bygid ypxfrd getdbm failed (reason =3D -1) = -- using ypxfr
        ypxfr: = couldnot get archeron address

ypxfr then succeeds at getting the map the old way = (w/o ypxfrd).  It's been like this from 3.0 through 3.4 FreeBSD = (x86).

Yeah, I'm a moron, I gave you the shadowed = entry.  You actually want
this entry in /etc/passwd.  Doh!
