>Environment:

YP-server: SunOS Release 4.1.3 with daemons below:
ypserv
ypxfrd
ypbind -s
rpc.ypupdated
/usr/etc/rpc.yppasswdd /var/yp/src/passwd  \
           /var/yp/src/security/passwd.adjunct -m

YP-client: FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE

>Description:

Login to the yp-client has no problem, but when change password:
% passwd
Changing NIS password for user on server.
Old Password:
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: failed to change NIS password: RPC: Server can't decode arguments

If I change the user password on YP-server
(directly edit the passwd.adjunct and make)
The user can change only once on yp-client.

>How-To-Repeat:

Trivial.

>Fix:

No idea. I just wondered why the user can change their password
only once after I edit the passwd.adjunct?
