I had several replies to do a
1. # passwd
2. # chkey -p
and
3. # keylogin -r (not mandatory)
I did 1 and 2 above and it worked ok.
There was one client where it would not take the secure RPC password
# chkey -p
Updating nisplus publickey database.
Reencrypting key for 'unix.hostname@llnl.gov'.
Please enter the Secure-RPC password for root:
Try again. Please enter the Secure-RPC password for root:
chkey: key-pair unchanged for root.
In this case, should I delete its entry from the cred table and
re-create the credential with
/usr/bin/nisaddcred -p unix.hostname@
or should I do something else?
Below is my original question
Is there anything special that needs to be done to change
a root password on a NIS+ server.
# passwd
and or
#chkey -p
#keylogin -r
What about changing the root password on a NIS+ client? I seem to remember
the procedure for the NIS+ server was different.
Thank You
