    Just as a clarifiction incase people get confused. This is not an
    issue with NIS but with the particular implemention used on Digital UNIX.
    
    Under Solaris there is the option for a passwd.adjunct map which will
    stop the display of encrypted passwords for users listed in the adjunct
    map when doing a ypcat passwd.
