NFS + NIS madness

[Hetz Ben Hamo]

Hi,
As you can see, all of them (from root) works perfectly:

[root at client ~]# ypcat passwd.byuid
vic:$6$FcNMjbbl$8wGzWhtEK9P0.WdoqE78xI9VDzmaH1wTF.2vax9VERW3uiqhytNjXXzVccCjnWRxV7ApHL.JibC0Ar4spM6In1:500:500:Vicky
the kitten!:/home/vic:/bin/bash
[root at client ~]# ypmatch 500 passwd.byuid
vic:$6$FcNMjbbl$8wGzWhtEK9P0.WdoqE78xI9VDzmaH1wTF.2vax9VERW3uiqhytNjXXzVccCjnWRxV7ApHL.JibC0Ar4spM6In1:500:500:Vicky
the kitten!:/home/vic:/bin/bash
[root at client ~]# getent passwd 500
vic:$6$FcNMjbbl$8wGzWhtEK9P0.WdoqE78xI9VDzmaH1wTF.2vax9VERW3uiqhytNjXXzVccCjnWRxV7ApHL.JibC0Ar4spM6In1:500:500:Vicky
the kitten!:/home/vic:/bin/bash

only when I do su - vic or login as vic, then it happens..

Thanks,
Hetz
