You need to have rpc.yppasswdd running.

Original Question:

YP problem?

Here's the system:

SunOS bigdog 5.6 Generic sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20

When I try to change my password:

bigdog% yppasswd

yppasswd: Changing password for mjgarcia

Enter login(NIS) password:

New password:

Re-enter new password:

Create clnt failure: RPC: Program not registered

Permission denied

bigdog%

The same thing happens as root.

Both ypserv and ypbind are running. I can login. ?

bigdog% rpcinfo | grep yp
