I have an Alpha 255.300 running DU 3.2g. I've run ypsetup on the alpha,
and it's now a YP(NIS) client of a DECstation running ULTRIX 4.3A.
I also have the users partition mounted to the ALPHA. However, all
the paths are different in DU (e.g. /usr/bin/X11/dxterm vs /usr/bin/dxterm
on the ULTRIX machine. An "rsh" or an rlogin to the alpha is no problem, but
I'd like for users to be able to login at the alpha. I could check to see what
the hostname is and execute a script that would correct the path, but this would
hose the remote logins.
Is there an easy way to do this? Am I overlooking the obvious solution?
Should I just add users and forget about the alpha being a YP(NIS) client?
Thanks in advance, for any suggestions!

I didn't say this, but the users partition is located on an ULTRIX 4.3A machine.
and being NFS-mounted to the Alpha.
