Hi, Im mainly a SunOS 4.1.3 administrator and I thought I
would try my hand at Solaris 2.3.
The installation from CD went fine, I then added a NIS user
from our SunOS 4.1.3_U1 NIS server to the password file and
then logged in as this person across the net.
The login worked fine and I could run things etc, but as
soon as I tried to su (to anybody) I get :
su: Sorry
Im puzzled .. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
