I got one answer from Ginny Bolyard <vbolyard@lucent.com>
(thanks Ginny) stating this could be done and how to set up
the NIS server.
However, I already knew how to do it on the server side. I wanted
to know if Solaris has support on the client side for pwdauth,
which it apparently doesn't.
ps I should have read the Makefile more closely, passwd.adjunct
is NOT merged into passwd.
