Does anyone know a way in which I can centrally store usernames and passwords across several machines.
The NIS/YP systems works well across six of our servers (all Unix): one has the password files and is NIS master, the others are slaves. I would however be extremely interested (it has come up before on this group) in methods of integrating an NT server into this, it seems likely that I shall be forced to have one sometime this year. It seems to me there is no way of making it a NIS slave, but the Unix systems can be configured as slaves to the NT. But I would prefer to hear of front-end software that will amend the password on both systems from one interface. -- Christopher Dawkins, Felsted School, Dunmow, Essex CM6 3JG 01371-820527 or 07798 636725 cchd@felsted.essex.sch.uk
