the inability to update nis passwords.
Oh yeah, this is a tough one. But common. I frequently refer to this
reference:

Great document, and it is what I used to finally get things working - to
the point they do.
In particular, remember to edit /etc/sysconfig/yppasswdd (Only change the
etc line. Not the passwd and shadow line.)
And then use "yppasswd" instead of "passwd"
I found this via google:

and will try it.
Thanks!
If you're still stuck, I think the system creates log messages somewhere
under /var/log.
The logs didn't show much.
