I am trying to migrate nis server from solaris to redhat(7.5), as per the doc I have exported /etc/passwd and /etc/group from solaris to redhat and made NIS up and running. If my /etc/passwd is e.g.: james:x:554:101::/users/james:/bin/bash kevin:x:723:103::/users/kevin:/usr/bin/bash jerry:x:1130032140:101::/users/jerry:/usr/bin/bash jose:x:1130032178:103::/users/jose:/usr/bin/bash These are my NIS users but if I do ypcat passwd I am able to see only jerry and jose. james and kevin are not listed. If I change the user id to 4 digit (e.g., 5544) after make I am able to see the user. The thing is if the user id is 3 digit ypcat passwd does not list that user.
