Problem with yppasswd ans openssh on Irix

[Markus Ridinger]

Hi,

I compiled openssh 2.1.1p1 on Irix 6.2 with MIPS 7.2.1.2m compiler. All
works fine except the yppasswd command from Irix (it's no NIS-problem,
same with rlogin works):

Logged in with 'ssh machine -l user1'
# who
user1 ttyq0 Jun 19 15:17 (xxxxx.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de)
# ypcat passwd |grep user1
user1:xxxxxxxxxxxxx:1535:1500:User1:/usr/people/user1:/bin/tcsh
# ypcat passwd |grep user2
user2:xxxxxxxxxxxxx:2108:2100:User2:/usr/people/user2:/bin/tcsh
# yppasswd
Changing NIS password for user2 on nis_server.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de.
Permission denied

User2 changes with different sessions, but is the same for every
'yppasswd' in the same session. 'yppasswd user1' works fine, so it seems a
problem of getting the correct UID.

Do you know about that problem? Is there any patch available?

Markus Ridinger
