NIS uid limits in Linux?

[Asher Miller <Asher Miller East Sun COM>]

I'm trying to connect my RH6.1 box to a Solaris network running NIS.  I'm unable 
to log in.  The YP stuff is installed and working on the Linux box, and I'm able 
to do ypcat on the domain, but I can't log in.  I don't get an error message 
(like a "Login Incorrect"); the screen just blinks and shoves me back into a 
login prompt.

Is it possible that there's a UID number limit on the Linux side?  They're up to 
over 10000 UIDs on this network.

I'm using the NIS client RPM which shipped with RH6.1.
