I setup the client (RH 7.2) with everything you gave me.
But didn't do that with my server (Solaris 5.8). It was already
setup to NIS+.
The client is not in the admin group. I didn't defined it (it was
another doubt of mine. Shall I have to create it??!!
It does authenticate it! I did niscat passwd.org_dir and
I saw encrypted passwords.

But, I have a problem right here.
I login in the client with root, then
make a su - <user-of-Solaris-NIS+-server>
and I can get it, authenticate it, do niscat, keylogin,
etc. This root of client is WITH POWER of ROOT of ROOT
MASTER of my SOLARIS SERVER!
Do I have to remove the root client's credential from
NIS+ server? What's wrong with it?
