I've setup NIS on Windows (R2 3.5) and added a users with UNIX Attributes... I can bind to NIS domain from my linux client... ypcat passwd from the linux client looks god... Permissions on the linux client look ok also, so the NIS server is working...
However,
I'm unable to login(via ssh) to the linus client using the Windows password... I get "Permission denied"
I've turned on logging on the windows NIS server, but I get no event logs or other logs...
How do you debug/troubleshoot NIS authentication from the Windows server?

I think it needs to be determined where the "deny" is happening.
From what you write it seems like the Windows NIS server doesn't get the query.
If you login for this user on the Linux machine's console will it accept the password?
If you telnet to the Linux machine will it accept the password?

Well, the magical IT bunny fixed the problem this morning... I took your advice and tried to login to the console and it worked! I then tried again using "ssh user@localhost" and that worked also...
First thing I did was reset the password on the Windows server(but I have tried that several times before)... Maybe that fixed something this time...
For future reference, can anyone tell me what logfiles to look at on the Windows side to help resolve NIS problems?
Thanks for the Help!
