1729.0. "Pathworks V6.1 and nis?" by RANGER::BACHUS::DHAENS () Fri Jan 31 1997 09:02

    Pathworks V6.1 and NIS
    
    What is meant with "LIMITED NIS PASSWORD PROPAGATION"
    
    Under what condition is this true?
    Does it work for the lanmanager "NET PASSWORD" or do we use netpass?
    Can a lanmanager client change his LM and UNix password from his
    workstation?

Limited means only LanManager and PATHWORKS for DOS/Windows V6.0.

The password sync (propagation) uses netpass.  The server
must have hostpasswordsync set to yes.  There was an ECO on
top of the V6.0 client that was needed to make this work with
V6.0 servers.
