The last couple of days I have bin trying to setup a box to authenticate users from a NIS server. With the help of the Handbook pages I've done that and it works. But I can't seem to get to only add users from a specific normal group to the client.
According to the 4.9-Release passwd man pages: >Using groups instead of netgroups for NIS overrides >FreeBSD offers the capability to do override matching based on user groups >rather than netgroups. If, for example, an NIS entry is specified as: > [EMAIL PROTECTED]::::::::: >the system will first try to match users against a netgroup called >`operator'. If an `operator' netgroup doesn't exist, the system will try >to match users against the normal `operator' group instead. I understood this to be that if operator isn't a netgroup but normal group this should only add users from the NIS-server that belong to that group. But I can't get it to work! Did I understand this wrong or have someone else experienced this problem? I'd just like to know if this is possible to accomplish or not! _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
