Any help will be much appreciated. I've just set up a NIS master server running Debian GNU/Linux Sarge, and some NIS client on Mandrake Linux 9.2 (a fairely old distribution, I know, but my client PCs are not poweful enough to install a new distro). Everything seems to work properly. I can login at any machine with a NIS user account. After a login, the user is placed well at their home directory on the Debian server, but the account does not have write permission on their home directory. (If I login using the account at the server, surly I can do everything within the home directory of the account). I don't know why this happens. Can anyone can show me a reason? Thank you for your help.
