I thought it was a FAQ, but I found no answer (except for the question in an asian foreign language...). In the following script, the client is FreeBSD 4.2, the server is Solaris 5.x. client-beig > passwd Changing NIS password for beig on server. Old Password: New password: Retype new password: passwd: failed to change NIS password: RPC: Server can't decode arguments Using an Ethernet sniffer, I see that the RPC packet from the client to the server contains the new password coded with MD5 ($1$Yea....). Is there a simple solution? -- Jacques Beigbeder | Jacques.Beigbeder@ens.fr Service de Prestations Informatiques | http://www.spi.ens.fr Ecole normale supérieure | 45 rue d'Ulm |Tel : (+33 1)1 44 32 37 96 F75230 Paris cedex 05 |Fax : (+33 1)1 44 32 20 80 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
