Hi,

We have a small number of servers set up to use NIS for their userbase. I
have set the server up to act as a client to itself for the purposes of
passwd changes etc. My question is this - how now do I add users. I can use
'adduser' then copy the entry out of the master.passwd into the
/var/yp/master.passwd then run 'make' but wont that then revert any entries
that have been changed (eg, through passwd) back to the original in the
/var/yp/master.passwd - does anybody use this successfully in practice?

Any help appriciated,
Regards,
Jordan
