[SunHELP] login problem

[Howard Hurst]

It might be something in your /etc/nsswitch.conf.

Maybe the passwd line? It might be looking for a nis server first? (Have you
got one?!). You want to check local files first.

passwd:     files nis

Has your server got the same subnet mask or default router as your nis
master? If you've got one, it might be an issue on your network router.

Hope that helps. (Probaby not though!)

Howard.
