Hello,
I'm in the process of setting up central authentication and files serving
for a group of 75 Linux workstations and thin clients.
If I never want to have Windows boxes working with this network, shall I
just use NIS?
I'm looking for the easiest system to maintain and users must be able to
change their passwords from any workstation.
I've already tried to setup an NIS server on a Redhat9 box with all of the
required packages, but the Redhat9 mans and docs only covers Ldap... Online
docs seem to be out of date. Following the instructions in 'Linux
Administration Handbook' by Nemeth, Snyder and Hein (2002), everything seems
to work until I'm supposed to run ypinit -s. It is located in /usr/lib/yp/
as a shell script but is not executable.
Thanks for any ideas.
Jim
