Folks,

I'm having a problem with qpopper and authentication.  We've compiled with
--enable-specialauth which should tell it to use special authentication
which should include NIS (not NIS+), right?  but the thing is we have to
use shadow passwords for local accounts as well, and, of course, that is
all qpopper will see.

So does anyone know how specifically to force qpopper to use NIS
authentication and ignore shadow passwords?  I'm guessing that we'll have
to do this at compile time...somehow...

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
