NIS - netgroup

Hello;

Sorry for the crosspost/repost, but I am getting desparate here.

I am having difficulties setting up ssh (ossh4.3p2 - NIS -Solaris8/Sparc) to authenticate and allow ossh access based on NIS netgroup. So, users and/or host should be from a valid netgroup triple, contained within the ossh servers .rhosts, .shosts, hosts.equiv and/or shosts.equiv.

I am having alot of trouble getting NIS netgroup to work with my current sshd_config, and I've tried just about everything...

My environment is pure NIS, no LDAP, at least not for the next year.

Again, many thanks in advance,

.vp
