# This file can be used to tweak the way YP (NIS) services
# are started.
#
+# IMPORTANT HINT: In order to get NIS clients to function on PAM, you will
+# need to find this line in /etc/pam.d/system-auth:
+# password sufficient pam_unix.so nullok sha512 shadow minlen=6 try_first_pass use_authtok
+# and change it adding nis to the end like this:
+# password sufficient pam_unix.so nullok sha512 shadow minlen=6 try_first_pass use_authtok nis
+#
# Optional arguments to pass ypserv upon startup:
#YPSERV_OPTS=""
#
