Hi all,

I have setup a NIS+ server on Solaris 8, and several clients on Solaris 8 as
well.

I created several users, within the same group, using AdminSuite. Although I
was able to
change the password of one of them, I could not change the password of the
second. passwd
exited with 'NIS+ password information update failed while talking to NIS+
passwd daemon'.
Both have similar entries in cred.org_dir and passwd.org_dir
Can someone help?

Thanks a lot

bash-2.03$ passwd
passwd: Changing password for thadou
Enter login(NIS+) password:
New password:
Re-enter new password:
NIS+ password information changed for thadou
NIS+ credential information changed for thadou

bash-2.03$ passwd
passwd: Changing password for tleglise
Enter login(NIS+) password:
New password:
Re-enter new password:
NIS+ password information update failed while talking to NIS+ passwd daemon
passwd (NIS+): Password information update failed
Permission denied
bash-2.03$
