I just set up NIS on my lan, but can't get any of the client machines
to accept logins using it.

On the client machine... /usr/home is exported using NFS. +:::::::::
is in master.passwd. +:*:: is in group.

I can manage to log in using any user exported by NIS or su to them.
The wierd part is that I have no probs getting ypcat and yppasswd to
work...


Any ideas?

btw all machines in question are running 4stable.
