Hi,

I have two alpha machines running redhat 5.0 and one of them is a NIS
server (I have started ypserver, yppasswdd daemons on the server) and
the other is a NIS client (I have started ypbind). It is possible
to login on the client but when i try to change
the password, it works only if I`m logged on server, not on client.
On client, the yppasswd gives me, after ask for the old one, the
message "sorry.". What is happening here?

thanks,
