    Question NIS user cannot access the server

    I'm a newbie to linux, and I have the following problem. We have setup NIS at work, and all users can ssh to the server without any problems, except for one user who always gets a "Permission denied, please try again." message when he tries to ssh to the server. Switching to that user while on the server works fine. Also from the server, this user can log on to any of the NIS clients without any problems. But for some reason, he cannot access the server.

    Any ideas?

    Just figured out the cause of the problem. The username was not in the sshlogin group in /etc/group.
