I have setup a 15 node cluster using RH7.1 and oscar-1.2.1 attached via eth0 to a workstation acting as the server for the cluster. The workstation itsself is attached, via eth1, to a network of boxes served via an NIS server. All appears OK until step 5, test cluster setup, when the script ../oscar-1.2.1/testing/test_install falls over when I try to use an existing NIS user name. Looking at the script I see that substiting 'ypcat passwd' for '/etc/passwd' when asked for the User Account would work but later down the script I see " updating password files across cluster... ". Is it possible to operate the cluster from a networked user account without having to let each node on the cluster have passwd, group and shadow information? Any help or comments on using a cluster attached to a node in an already networked envirnment would be much appreciated. Regards, and thanks in advance, Rob Hawkes P.S. When I log on to the workstation I get the following error message 'cannot determine home directory of user ...' but I still have full access to the users home directory on the NIS server.
