Hi,
I am using 386bsd in a network which uses YP (now NIS) for passwords.
Is there a practical way to use these information on 386bsd?
- YP implementation (client or server) for 386bsd?
- a script to convert a password file of a different style (e.g. Ultrix
3.0) to 386bsd style 
- or the convertion in the other direction?
