Hello,

I got problem using NIS/yp on FreeBSD with solaris server.

ypbin run, and NIS-UID are correctly recognise as shown by a ls on an
nfs directory. Byt login with a nis-user are  impossible unless
I provide an empty passwd.

- NIS are currecntly not using shadow fueature (I am in the test stage).
- I suspect FreeBSD to use MD5 passwd or somthing wich are not DES as
contrary of NIS passwd.

How can I found the solution and/or test this two point ?

S.R.
