>Environment:

yp_server: SunOS-4.1.3 sun4m
client: FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE i386

>Description:

We have to using SunOS-4.1.3 yp_server.
patch for /usr/src/usr.bin/passwd/yp_passwd.c
line: 83
-       pw = (struct passwd *)&yp_password;
+       pw = getpwuid(uid); 

It worked well before. Now when changing passwd:
Changing NIS password for wkwu on nis-server.
Old Password: 
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: failed to change NIS password: RPC: Server can't decode arguments

I have traced some source. But no idea ...

>How-To-Repeat:

Using FreeBSD as yp_client to bind SunOS-4.1.3 yp_server.

>Fix:

No idea.
