Hi...

	I'm missing something in my NIS setup, and can't seem to figure
out where/what it is :(

	Basically, on the client machine, I've started up ypbind -s.  As
root, I can type in, on that machine 'chsh <userid>', and it will bring
up the appropriate entry from the server machine to be modified.

	If I try to login to the client machine, though, it won't accept
that password.

	I'm assuming that since it is doing "part" of it right, that there
is something I'm missing to get login to accept the userid/passwds, but
can't find it :(

	And, of course...man pages are a little limited on its information
for this, and I don't have the NFS/NIS O'Reilly book yet :(

	Any recommendations?

Thanks...
