Is there a firewall present? SELinux? If there is SELinux running, run
"getsebool -a | grep yp" and make sure your booleans are set to allow the
proper things. What does your /etc/pam.d/system-auth say? Has it been
updated for NIS?
What kind of bug did you run into with system-config-network?

Reply-To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx
I need documentation on NIS client for an RH Enterprise 5.3 system.
Also please send any suggestions as to what we have misconfigured
on our client.
We have a 2.6.18-128.1.1.el5xen system on which we are trying to
configure NIS client software.
Our NIS server is a Solaris system running SunOS 5.8.

Did you use system-config-authentication so that all necessary files would
be
modified, or did you modify files by hand?
I modified by hand. I tried to open the system-config-network on this
particular system, but apparently there is a bug in the gui program. I also
like to modify the files by hand, so I can have a better understanding of
the process. We maintain various types of operating systems here. Guis
change with the systems, but the basic unix structure stays the same.
