NIS RH 7.1 and Solaris 2.5.1

Hi,

I am currently trying to get a RedHat 7.1 machine to authenticate NIS
clients using NIS from our Solaris 2.5.1 server.

I have set up the /etc/yp.conf file and /etc/nsswitch.conf file to query NIS
and started ypbind successfully.

I can do a 'ypcat passwd' therefore I know I can successfully query our NIS
master server.

When a user logs in it does not authenticate them.

I have been surfing think the problem lies in /etc/pam.d/login, am I
correct?

Here it is, what should I change so it can authenticate, do I need to stop
and start anything after changing this file?

--------------------------------

#%PAM-1.0

account    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth

session    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    optional     /lib/security/pam_console.so
