Add the user to the cred table on the root master server by typing the following command:
# nisaddcred -p unix.UID@domain-name -P username.domain-name. des |
Note that, in this case, the username.domain-name must end with a dot (.)
Verify the setup by logging in as the client and typing the keylogin command.
The following example shows how DES authorization is given to a user who is named george.
# nisaddcred -p unix.1234@North.Abc.com -P george.North.Abc.COM. des DES principal name : unix.1234@North.Abc.COM Adding new key for unix.1234@North.Abc.COM (george.North.Abc.COM.) Password: Retype password: # rlogin rootmaster -l george # keylogin Password: # |
