- A user here wants to receive mail on a 4.2 machine that knows her usercode
- only thru NIS; it does not appear in the passwd file. sendmail seems not to
- consult NIS, and bounces mail with `user unknown'. Anyone know what to poke
- to fix this?
-
- Please send responses to V.Spagnolo@massey.ac.nz.

- Thanx very much,
