Subject: YP/NIS server in 4.8 and client 5.1 problem

I have a weird problem. I have been using YP/NIS without any problems
until now. Now I have a 5.1 machine in my network just because 4.8 doesnt
support SATA controller in the motherboard of the machine.

I have setup the YP/NIS client as I always did in 4.8 machines. Now in 5.1
I cant get the user passwords from YP/NIS server but somehow the group
ids work fine. I am completely sure because the client gets the group id
in ls -la listings. (I use amd/nfsd too)

Any tips? :)
