Andy, yppasswd will not change your Windows (Active Directory) user name
and password. Best way for a Linux user to change their password is to
go to http://password.onstor.net .=20
Thanks for the Wiki docs. I'll look for the updates.

Andy,

I'm sending this one over to Brian. He had mentioned that he spoke with
you earlier regarding Debian.

Hi Kevin,

Quick question, if I change my password with yppassword, does it change
my password for windows/exchange and all that as well?  I changed my
password with yppassword, but I still seem able to log into IMAP with
the original [default] password.

With some memory prodding and some examples from John Rogers, I was able
to get the nis and automount stuff working.  Thanks for your help on
that.  I am keeping track of everything I learn and will create a
wiki page for newbie boneheads like meeself that want to brew their
own.  One thing that was holding up the parade was that there was this
hotplug thing for eth0 in my /etc/network/interfaces file, probably
because the Debian/Etch install knew it was a laptop and it thinks
that's the best way to do laptops.  However, udev didn't seem to do the
deal until ypbind tried to do it's thing, which was too late.  Naturally
I fixed that but I thought it was interesting to note.


Cheers,

a
