I am setting up a small cluster here on RH 7.2 using NIS. When NIS is running, log in take an inordinate amount of time-some 12-14 seconds. Without NIS running, log in is immediate. Has anyone come across this problem? TIA., -ar Angel R. Rivera Technical Computing Environment ETN: 639-4035 / VOX: 281-293-4035 ---- Today I will commit an act of random kindness!
