Hi all,
Some of my users are unable to change their NIS passwd.
They get the following error.
optico:[19]~>yppasswd
Changing NIS password for jgwr
Old NIS password:
New password:
Retype new password:
RPC: Server can't decode arguments
couldn't change passwd
optico:[20]~>
However, other users have no problem changing their passwd.
ALL users appear in /var/yp/src/{passwd,auto.home,netgroup}
I am not using enhanced security either.
Any ideas??
