Hello,

I have just set-up NIS as described in the HOWTO, but it says that I
have to modify all pam_pwdb entries in /etc/pam.d/ to pam_unix_auth. Not
only did it scare me to do that (maybe security is lessened?) but also
when I tried to do it I got unable to resolve symbols.

Is there any way to make PAM work with NIS? I don't want to have to
duplicate the password database manually every time :-(

Karl
