Enhanced Security and NIS

     Hi,
     
     I run DU 3.2g and Enhanced Security.
     
     I understand that there is only one way to manage users and that is
     the XSysAdmin and XIsso programs.
     
     I also understand that I can choose "NIS" when I manage accounts.
     
     
     But I do not understand that the commands "su", "login" and everything
     else that authenticates users will not recognize those users that are
     under NIS control. (I suppose that is because the protected passwd
     database is "prpasswd" instead of "/tcb/files/auth/[a-z])
     
     
     How am I supposed to use NIS and enhanced security? Is there a newer
     version of libsecurity.so (can I steal from DU 4.0 ?) or what ?
     
     
     Yours,
     Lars Bro lbro_at_dscc.dk
