Hi Eddie, This is due to the shell not existing in the same place on RedHat. Find out where the shell should be according to FreeBSD (look in /etc/master.passwd at the entry for that user) and then create a symlink on the RH box to that path from the binary (use which to find the source). Also, use authconfig on the RH box to configure NIS- less pain. HTH.
