I have a NIS master and 5 slaves connected to a network.  The domainname
is the same on each machine.

Problem:  When I add an account to the Master, It does not push the passwd
file across to the other slaves.  I have each machine in /etc/hosts, and
/etc/ethers.  Each machine has a local disk so it can boot on its own.

During the make in /var/yp everything seemes to be fine. I get the
messages pushed passwd and netid.

Any suggestions or help is greatly thanked.
