Do you have any other tips on how to handle logins in a mixed OS YP
network?

These days, I would recommend using YP in fewer places.  I wrote the
code, but even I don't use it.  Each time I make changes that need testing
in a YP environment, my test group has shrunk again...

I suspect that the best bet for general interop will be an LDAP-based
infrastructure.  You may need to verify that all OSes can use a
common subset of a valid schema, as well as probably needing a minimal
PKI for SSL. If NFS is in the picture, watch for NFS version compatibility
and username mapping ideosyncracies (search for idmapd).
