Slightly OT: HPUX, Linux, NIS, and Variable Length Subnet Masking



Title: Message
We are currently having an issue with NIS not working properly on some HP/UX machines.  We have them authenticating through a Redhat 8.0 NIS Slave server, the NIS Master is HPUX.
 
We have been having funny issues with the HP/UX machines just dropping the Redhat NIS server, with automapping/mounting not automounting reliably, with some permissions not working so that users can't write to their own home directory from one HP, but works fine from another.
 
Now everything was fine and dandy until we were told to go to Variable length subnet masking, then the HP's came unglued.   I was wondering if anyone here thats been around for a while, knows of HP having issues with this type of addressing.
 
This is on topic, only because I have HP Admins blaming a Redhat NIS server, and I'm trying to proove them otherwise since everything on the Redhat and NIS server sides says they are doing their job.  In fact, other machines are authenticating to the Redhat machine, just the HP's are having issues.
 
Thanks,
Travis
