Problems Changing users NIS password from root account

2007-12-25 8:39:00

Thanx for the many replies i received. The trick is:

passwd -F [NIS-password-source] [username]

[NIS-password-source] should point to the nis password file. eg. /var/yp/passwd

This allows the root to change the user's passwd without knowing the old one.
