Hi,

I have been trying to add users to just the NIS password map on a NIS 
server which is being kept separate from the regular password file.

I have been using

pw -V /var/yp useradd USER -m -Y

to create the user.  The password map is updated fine, but the user's home 
directory in not being created.
If I run pw without the -V option the home directory is created no problem.
Is there something I am missing when implementing the -V option?

any help is appreciated, but please reply cc: to my mail address as I am 
not subscribed to this list.

Thanks.
MRC
