Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG newbie freebsd question... i've got an nis domain set up here, to allow (in theory) the irix, solaris, linux and free bsd machines to all work happily together. i've got ypbind running at boot ok... i can ypcat passwd and get the list, but the nis users aren't showing up. (unknown login xxxxx) i created an /etc/nsswitch.conf, with passwd: files nis which is the setup that works in solaris and linux... so what stupid thing am i missing? brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
