Not so: http://www.realbodo.de/debian these packages work very nicely and are currently running on 15 or so lab machines for me. They were a godsend when we phased out yp compatibility mode, and I was trying to hack the stuff from SuSE.. I would think that the NIS+ stuff has some licensing issues (sun binary licence.... BAAAD!), or something as such. Michael Janssen CNS Network Administrator University of Northern Iowa [EMAIL PROTECTED]
