I'll give it a go, but I'm managing to login if the user has a password set,
so I don't think the actual NIS fetch is a problem. I think that the fault
lies in the PAM authentiation.

The other thing I should have mentioned is in /var/log/auth.log I'm getting

PAM_unix [1234]: authentation failure; LOGIN(uid=0) -> <username> for login
