nis problem with "testing"
Ciao,
I have look around for the solution of this problem, but untill now I
haven't find the "right" solutions (= no more problem :-)
Shortly:
etc# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) gruppi=0(root)
etc# ypcat passwd
nis01:x:1001:1001:untente nis 01,,,:/home/nis01:/bin/bash
nis02:x:1002:1002:utente nis 02,,,:/home/nis02:/bin/bash
etc# su nis01
su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.
(Ignored)
$ su nis02
Password: 
su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.
Sorry.
etc$ id
uid=1001(nis01) gid=1001(nis01) gruppi=1001(nis01)
etc$ ypcat passwd
nis01:x:1001:1001:untente nis 01,,,:/home/nis01:/bin/bash
nis02:x:1002:1002:utente nis 02,,,:/home/nis02:/bin/bash
so it seems that nis works (in some way...)
etc$ uname -a

The really strange thing is that with a RH 6.2 server it works all right,
but with a Debian 2.2 server it doesen't works.
(all clients are deb 2.2)
Any hint?
