I seem to have this very odd issue with CentOS 6 WRT NIS.  I have taken the 
package selection that I used with CentOS 5 and basically plopped it into my C6 
kickstart file (see below).  On C5 this works just fine and I'm able to log in 
with NIS credentials just fine.  However, it looks like on C6 if you use a 
package selection like this, you also need to specify the yp-tools package as 
part of the kickstart *even though* you specify an authentication method of NIS 
in the kickstart.  Seems like a bug to me?!?



auth  --useshadow  --enablemd5  --enablenis --nisdomain test --nisserver 
yp.example.com

%packages
@core
augeas
autofs
dstat
nfs-utils
ntp
openssh
openssh-clients
openssh-server
portreserve
puppet
redhat-lsb
rsh-server
sendmail
sendmail-cf
sudo
sysstat
tcp_wrappers
wget
xinetd
yum-utils
%end
