Unfortunately I did not make any notes on the procedure I used.
I think it was just:
- create an account on nis server with gecos containing non-ascii
- set "passwd: nis" in /etc/nsswitch.conf on nis client
- try to login to nis client on console or via ssh
However I cannot replicate the login problem anymore.
I wonder if I forgot to change /bin/tcsh (which doesn't exist
on my linux boxes) to /bin/bash when I tested previously.

I don't know how to login to an account that has non-ascii
characters in it so I can't test that.

This works.
