- I can't seem to get rpc.yppasswdd to work correctly. The symptom is:
- passwd will change the entry in the passwd input file but the make
- is not being done. I know the make isn't being done because the
- timestamp, passwd.time, is always the old one. My input files are in
- /var/etc (non-standard place) and I've started yppasswdd in rc.local
- with, rpc.yppasswdd /var/etc/passwd -m passwd . The makefile in
- /var/yp works correctly by hand (that is DIR is set right). This is
- exactly the same setup I used on my old machine running 4.1.1a.
-
- Anyone have any ideas?

- thanks for the support.
