Is anyone using netgroups on Linux?
Yes, on nearly every server.
I'm having some trouble with them... First, they're not being distributed by the nis server,
Do you have adjust /var/yp/Makefile to build netgroups ? netgroups are disabled by default. And you need to edit /etc/nsswitch.conf on the client.
secondly, the local groups should go in other groups, how can this be done? (like @family should go in @guestusers)...
Do you mean you have a local netgroup file and a NIS version ?
