Hi ! There's a question which I can't seem to find an answer for. I'm using NIS for authentication around my network, and I would like to be able to use login.conf so I could tune some options depending on user classes. My problem is that it works only if users log directly on the server, but not when using there workstation and authenticating through NIS. It looks like login.conf has to be edited on all machines and not only on the server... So my question is: - can I make clients use the NIS server's login.conf ? - is login.conf able to be distributed as a NIS map around workstations ? Thanks in advance. Antoine
