yppasswd NIS problem with Freebsd client and Solaris NIS server
Anyone else had this problem? All of my Freebsd boxes 4.6-4.8 connect to my Solaris 8 NIS servers with out any troubles. They are able to authenticate and get all the maps that they need in order to operate. However, I have never been able to change my NIS password from them. Eventhough this works from all of my Solaris 8 NIS clients. I have changed the default passwd_format to des and ran cap_mkdb. I did run across this posting: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/53721 but it doesn't seem to effect 4.x... or does it? rc.conf looks like: nisdomainname=secs.oakland.edu nis_client_enable=YES followed the installation instructions found: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-nis.html anyone have any hits or tips?

I did run across this posting: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/53721 That applies to NIS servers.

I get it when I run as either root or user. #yppasswd burdine Changing NIS password for burdine on zan. Old Password: yppasswd: sorry When I went parusing through the source I found where it is dying, I think... line 153 in /usr/src/usr.bin/passwd/yp_passwd.c which leads me to believe that it is a crypt problem..? but I have checked all the usual suspects... /etc/login.conf /etc/auth.conf both are using des.
