Dear All,
I have set up an OpenBSD NIS server which is working as expected.
However, there is one
point I have not understood yet. My NIS clients are FreeBSD stations. I
have added an entry
at the bottom of /etc/passwd to request NIS authentication. But the
behaviour of the root
account authentication is somewhat different. If I login from the
console, it uses the local
root password. However, if use the su - command, it uses NIS
authentication.
Is there a way to tell FreeBSD to use only local password for the root
account?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
José Fragoso
