I have a FreeBSD 4.2-release box that i use as a file server.  It is on a NIS
domain server by a sunos 5.7 box.  It binds to the domain, and i can finger any
user within that domain.  However, i cannot telnet in to the box with a NIS
user, i can only telnet in with a locally created account.  I think it is a
problem with PAM, but have been unable to find any documentation on how i might
either: a) turn off pam completely, or b)allow pam to use NIS for
authentication.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Sean Shilton
