I simply need to add a NIS user to a local group (floppy, cdrom). Is
this possible without spending an hours worth of uid/gid BS? I was hoping it would be something simple like: local /etc/group: .... floppy:x:25:user1,user2,+nisuser cdrom:x:25:user1,user2,+nisuser .... which obviously doesn't work. Any ideas? |
