Hi All, When I use yppasswd to change a users password it seems to work OK. The password is changed in the password source file. However if I try to login with the new password I can't, but the old password still works. So it appears that the password in the active password database isn't being updated. This is confirmed because if I restart ypserv then the new password becomes active. I see the following error message in /var/log/messages ypserv: refused connect from 127.0.0.1:791 to procedure ypproc_clear (,;0) Now I've tried this with iptables disabled and with no hosts.allow/deny file so it doesn't appear to be a problem with either of those. My securenets file contains the lines # Always allow access for localhost 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 I run ypserv and yppasswdd on specific ports 801/803 to allow them through the firewall. Any ideas.
