FreeBSD 5.3 and NIS

2005-05-19 Thread Micheal Patterson
I'm running nfs/nis off of a FreeBSD 4.10 system. I have a secondary NIS
master on a freebsd 5.3 system and so far, everything is cool between them.
There is one thing that I've noticed that I've never seen before though. I
have a nfs mount mounted but the permissions for the group show as $FreeBSD
instead of the actual group it should be. I've checked my nis settings in
/etc/group and have the standard +::: at the end. Anyone else seen this or
can possibly explain why this isn't listing as the appropriate group?

Thanks.

I know this is going to be a hot in the dark for me since I left 4x behind 
quite a long while ago, but I seem to remember reading something about 
some compatibility issues between nis on 4x and 5x.  There were changes 
that could be made to work around it, but wow...I just don't remember 
where I saw it.  I think FreeBSD Diary, if you want to google there.
