I have a network with 3x Linux servers and 3x FreeBSD servers on it that I
am trying to get NIS running on. One of the FreeBSD servers is to be the
ypserv master and another will be a slave. The linux boxes are 2x terminal 
servers and 1x shell + pop server thus they will just be clients.

Do I have to run DES passwords on the FreeBSD machines as they are all
currently MD5?

The Debian/Linux machines are all running shadow passwords which I 
guess are still DES.
