Hi, there:

I just install nis in our local network of solaris 8 workstations.
However, I found the root account on the nis clients are not able to make
changes to files or directories of normal user's. Maybe it looks to the
mounted user directories that the local root account only has the authority of
"other". Is ther any was to solve this problem except changing the mode of the
user account directories.

Thanks!

Frank
