Greetings! I've upgraded one debian machine to unstable for development purposes. The other machines on our network, including the NIS server, are running 'stable' or 'bo'. Briefly, I can login to the unstable system with passwords passed over NIS, but I can't get the system netgroup, which is entered in /etc/hosts.equiv, to allow passwordless rsh logins.
Here is my /etc/nsswitch.conf: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # passwd: compat group: compat shadow: compat hosts: files dns networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc: db files netgroup: nis db files ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- and /etc/hosts.equiv: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] root ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- and `ypmatch -k hequiv netgroup` on the unstable system: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- hequiv (intech1.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech2.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech3.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech4.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech5.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech7.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech8.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (intech9.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (fla.fla.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (trading.fla.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) (qintech.fla.enhanced.com,-,enhanced.com) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- rsh from, say, intech5 prompts me for a password. Any ideas? Thanks! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Camm Maguire ================================================================== "The earth is one country, and mankind its citizens."
