Running ypserv off a Linux box fine, attempting to set up workstation as NIS
client for password:

No Plan.

User can log in successfully.

As far as I can tell from passwd(5), getpwuid should work.  As it is,
numerous programs, including sudo and ssh, fail.

If this not up anyone's ally, I could dig around the code myself.  Just let
me know. :)
