Hi

I'm trying to set up a network to run NIS across a variety of machines (SuSE 10.1, Mandriva 10, Windows XP Pro) and I was wondering this was possible; a search didn't bring me a lot of results . Has anyone had any experience of setting this up, and were there any specific issues I should be aware of?

Hi, there is no NIS client for windows as far as I know, you could try using LDAP.
