- Does anybody know about C2 security on SGI?
- (or shadow password mechanism which can go along with NIS...)
-
- We have 4 workstations and they are tightly coupled with NFS and NIS(YP).
- The server(master) machine is Iris 4D, and clients are Sun4 and Mips.
- But, as you know, the NIS without C2 has great security hole.
- (If you got the domain name, you could get anything from that domain.)
-
- I have to secure our machines. Please send a E-mail to me if you have
- the right answer....
-
- Thanks in advance.
