I've had my Alpha (RH 6.2 with current updates) integrated with a Solaris NIS domain for over a year. Here's what I'm doing: I use pam_pwdb, not pam_unix. Here's my /etc/pam.d/login, for example: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_securetty.so auth required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so account required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so password required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so nullok use_authtok shadow session required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so (Hmmm... I wonder why I've got "nullok" in there? ...) The relevant lines in my /etc/nsswitch.conf look like this: passwd: files compat group: nis files The glibc version is whatever RedHat supplies, currently 2.1.3. It just works.
