Hi OSF/1 gurus!

On May 17 I asked this question to the list:

I have got no answer but I have compiled
this package now. There is still one problem:

when I test ypchfn or ypchsh ... I get

$> ypchsh
Changing yp login shell for babar1
Shell [/bin/bash]: /bin/ksh
socket: Permission denied
yellow pages login shell not changed
$>

It is solved by setting s(UID)-bit of ypchsh - but this
is not the solution I want!!

Do You see a better way or can You recommend
a better software solution (package).

Thanks in advance
