Hello
	I have a 2.0.5 NIS server that is also the gateway between two
subnets, when it boots it sets its hostname/IP number using subnet A and
the second ethernet is configured using its IP numebr on subnet B.
	On subnet A I have a slave server that is also a gateway to
another subnet C. Something like this:



                     Subnet A
------------+-----------------------------+-----------------------
            |                             |      
           Master                       Slave 
            |                             |
   ---------+---- Subnet B            ----+-------- Subnet C

My problem is: users logged on clients in A and C subnets can change
their password without any problems but those on subnet B can't.

On subnet C passwd -y times out with the message:

yppasswd: yppasswdd not running on NIS master host

Looking with tcpdump it seems the client (pm3) is replying to the server
(samba) with  an unrecheable port message.

00:04:16.401369 pm3.iqm.unicamp.br > samba.iqm.unicamp.br: icmp: pm3.iqm.unicamp.br udp port ock unreachable

Is there any known problem with ypasswdd runing on gateways?

Pedro
