Given the lack of response on this, I fortunately was able to 'downgrade' back to sources dated 08 june 2003. Low and behold, NIS users again work. There is undoubtedly something awry in the the latest sources, as I can systematically recreate a 'broken' system. I will gladly provide shell access to developers who wish to look into this. It would be nice to be able to stay current on -CURRENT (heh). Thanks. > > > ----- Robin P.
