The solution:
I install the patch 100564-07 (C2 Jumbo patch) and works pretty well with the following changes to the install instructions:
1) You must put the AUyppasswdd and AUpwdauthd in the NIS passwd file
and not in the normal passwd file.
2) You must run /usr/etc/rpc.yppasswdd /etc/passwd.NIS -m passwd instead
of /usr/etc/rpc.yppasswdd /etc/passwd.NIS /etc/security/passwd.adjunct -m
I still don't understand why because I think is the same but doesn't work
with the second sintax.
3) The first time you're going to setup the passwd for a user the passwd field must be in blank
in the NIS passwd file ...after the passwd is written to the /etc/security/passwd.adjunct
you must put the ##login_name in the NIS passwd file.
