Password changing problem
We are running HP-UX 10.20 on our NIS server. Clients are HP-UX 10.20, solaris 7 & 8, and Redhat Linux 7.1 and 7.2.
Thank you,
Randy Brow

Re: Password changing problem
What would be the problem about using the yp utilities to push the security information a little more often?
Further, it would seem that you may have a problem with NIS, and some more data will have to be posted for anyone to help with that.

Re: Password changing problem
1) /etc/rc.config.d/namesvrs
The line that starts with "YPPASSWD".
2) The directory where the master password file is located (we all know the default is /etc).

Re: Password changing problem
YPPASSWDD_OPTIONS="/etc/passwd -m passwd PWFILE=/etc/passwd"
Master passwd file is /etc/passwd
Thank you!

Re: Password changing problem
YPPASSWDD_OPTIONS="/etc/passwd -l /var/adm/yppasswdd.log -m passwd PWFILE=/etc/passwd".
Now restart the services and see if you get any error message in the log file.

Re: Password changing problem
$ passwd -r files
and then
$ passwd -r nis
If you don;t have local entry in /etc/passwd the former should come back and say "invalid login". The latter would be updating the nis map. Just wanted to see if this makes any difference.
