Hello Martin, Thanks for the reply. I managed to fix the problem. I had not configured the nssswitch.conf to use NIS thats all. Martin I would like to ask you one more doubt which I have already asked in the list. I didnt want to trouble everyone with the same doubts again. Martin, now that NIS works I am able to login and reach till the shell. But no home directory in the client system. Martin I would like to know if there is any way where in I can run a script on the client end when I log in as a NIS user? I f I am able to log in then I might be able to create a home folder on the fly. Can you please help me ?
