yppasswd problem

[BBA]

Any ideas on this one?&nbsp;&nbsp;I have quite a few AIX 4.3.3 boxes set up using NIS.&nbsp;&nbsp;One problem - I can't get yppasswd working on clients.&nbsp;&nbsp;I have the yppasswdd daemon running on the NIS server but when I try to enter &quot;yppasswd joe&quot; on a client it prompts me for the NIS passwd - I enter the password and it immed tell me that I have a NIS password mismatch.<br><br>Funny thing though - the doc's indicate that it will ask me for the new password before verifing the old.<br><br>I can change the password on the NIS server and make the maps - that works fine.<br><br>Any IDEAS??

I presume of course that you have set up the NIS clients to be just that, did you type in the correct domainname? What output do you get from a ypcat command? Have the maps been pushed as well as made?
