I experience problems with passwords and groups over yp. If I do a chgrp I get : illegal group name If I do a ls in the home directory ... the ls shows me that every home is owned by root and not by the user. If I do a chown user userdir ... I don't get an error and the user can write in it but the ls still shows root as the user. Can anybody help ? - Thanx, Peter /-------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Peter Burgstaller| Student of Computerscience | | (peter@cosy.sbg.ac.at)| in Salzburg, Austria (Europe) | | "If a Trainstation is a place where a train stops, | | what is a Workstation ?" | \-------------------------------------------------------------------/
