Hi!

I'm having NIS password problems on NetBSD/i386 3.0_BETA. I can change
my own NIS password just fine

# ssh martti@xxx
# passwd
Old Password:
New Password:
Retype New Password:
The NIS password has been changed on xxx, the master NIS passwd server.


but another user can't change his password


# ssh user@xxx
# passwd
Old Password:
New Password:
Retype New Password:
Couldn't change NIS password.
Unable to change auth token: error in service module
# id
uid=2077(user) gid=1000(ggg) groups=1000(ggg)


There are nothing interesting in the logs


Oct 13 10:15:50 xxx ypserv[13916]: match_2: request from xxx, secure FALSE, 
domain yyy, map group.bygid, key 1000
Oct 13 10:15:50 xxx ypserv[13916]: master_2: request from xxx, secure FALSE, 
domain yyy, map passwd.byname

Oct 13 10:15:28 xxx rpcbind: connect from 111.222.333.444 to getport/addr(yppasswdd)


Any ideas?
