It seems that shadow passwords are causing the problems. I just copied the encrypted passwords from /etc/shadow to /etc/passwd on the NIS server. This solved the login problems. Running "ltrace getent shadow user" shows that getspnam returns NULL for remote NIS users, whereas for local users it returns the correct shadow entry.
