I have two SUN SPARC 1+ workstation, one set up as master and the other as
client in NIS.  When I change passwd (using yppasswd or passwd), the
/etc/passwd file on the master machine is updated.  The password on the master
machine is changed accordingly but the client machine still uses the old
password.  Reboot either machine doesn't change the situation.  In fact
I have no way to change the passwd on the client.
