Hi!
Don´t know if this is our problem, but after a recent ubgrade of a
slink box the +::: entryies in /etc/passwd and /etc/group on this box
where missing.
I didnt notice this at first, as i was logged in as root, so i dont
know which package caused this (base-passwd??).
Anyway, editing /etc/passwd and /etc/group solved the problems with
nis for me.
HTH, Ramin
