Hi,

recently I have a problem with one of my DECs. It is not possible to
change the NIS-password on this machine.

It just comes back to the prompt:

volz_at_mailer2 ~ >yppasswd
Changing NIS password for volz
Password unchanged.
volz_at_mailer2 ~ >

This machine is a NIS slave server working with DU 4.0.
The master ist currently running DU 3.2c

---------------------------
        Current NIS Configuration
       ---------------------------

        domainname : mb.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de
        type : SLAVE
        ypbind options : -s -S
mb.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de,mailer2.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de,bogart.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de,mailer1.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de,wood.mpib-tuebingen.mpg.de
