[ILUG] Configuring nis slave server

Hi,
I am trying to setup a nis slave server, but somehow cannot authenticate the
clients when they are bound to the slave server.

The changes I made on the master server are
NOPUSH=false

added the server name to /var/yp/ypservers

ran ypinit -s mastername on slave server
started ypxfrd and yppasswd on the slave server


I can connect to the clients as root and the su to any user.
ypcat -k mapname gives the output.

But somehow a ssh login does not authenticate.

sshd(pam_unix)[2238]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0
tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=192.168.10.121



Thanks,
--W
