Hi all,
I was unable to find this one in the archives. I'm a Sun sysadmin, recently
charged
with supporting Tru64 v4 and v5 systems. I'm trying to get them going as nis
clients,
strictly for passwd and group. The problem I'm seeing is that no NIS user can
log in -
they always get "login incorrect". I'm green in Tru64 by the way.
Please email me directly and I'll summarize.
richard_h_tong_at_notes.seagate.com. Thank you!
Details and procedures:
- Added a "+:" as the last line to my /etc/passwd and /etc/group files
# /usr/sbin/rcmgr -c set NIS_CONF YES
# /usr/sbin/rcmgr -c set NIS_TYPE CLIENT
# /usr/sbin/rcmgr -c set NIS_DOMAIN seagate.com
# /usr/sbin/rcmgr -c set NIS_ARGS "-S seagate.com,nishost1"
- /etc/svc.conf has lines: passwd=local,yp and group=local,yp
# /sbin/init.d/nis start
# ypwhich
nishost1.seagate.com
# ypcat passwd
<contents of nis passwd file flies by>
"su - username" works just fine when I'm already logged in as root. /etc/passwd
does NOT have username in it, so I know it's pulling username from NIS.
- I go to a different machine (Solaris 2.6), and telnet into the alpha:
$ telnet alpha1
Trying xx.x.xx.xxx...
Connected to alpha1
Escape character is '^]'.
Compaq Tru64 UNIX v5.0 (Rev. 910) (alpha1) (pts/4)
login: username
Password:
Login incorrect
login:
My nis master is an HPUX 10.20 machine. System is not running tcb.
I also have a Solaris 2.6 system running as an NIS slave to this HP
machine. I've also set the alpha box to bind to the Solaris machine,
with the same results.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
