It's reversed -- the FBSD box is the client, Solaris is the NIS master, so it's using crypt by default. As for authentication, I can't login (either through ssh or the console). The system is getting the NIS maps, it sees my uid/gid. I can 'su - dsilver', but it doesn't let me in the front door. I have a nearly identical 4.4 box which I've compared this upgraded system to, and nothing seems to work; the 4.4 box even has 'md5' in login.conf -- I just tried changing this on the 4.6 to 'des' & ran cap_mkdb, but still no luck. I just added a local user and that worked properly. I've run out of ideas on this -- anyone have a clue as to why this is happening?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Doug Silver Network Manager Urchin Software Corp. http://www.urchin.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Thu, 8 Aug 2002, Yanek Korff wrote: > If you're trying to authenticate on the Solaris box, your password in NIS > had better be stored in crypt format -- not MD5, unless you've taken > additional steps on the Solaris box beyond with what I am familiar.
