Hi

when i change any details on my NIS server, I can't get them refreshed
to the client. the server is redhat 9, and the client is FC3. if i
change either the password or (in this case) the login shell, nothing
happens. running ypcat passwd on the client shows the old details, as
does ypcat -h localhost passwd on the NIS server itself.

any ideas here?

thanks in advance
