Subject:   Problem getting NIS/yp to allow logins/su to users

I've been banging my head against the wall on this one, and can't figure
out what the deal is.  This is the first time I've had to use the NIS/yp
support.  This is FreeBSD 2.1.6-RELEASE.

I can successfully bind, ypcat, ypwhich, ypmatch.  But if I su or login
it always comes back with unknown login.  I know yp is working, since I
can see users and groups just fine in the "ls -l" listing...
