nisping: RPC error (fwd)

[Mauricio Brigato]

I was no authenticated. I did keylogin -f and keylogin -r and
I was authenticated.
After, I've made a "nisping -Ca" and got that:
>> nisping -Ca
Checkpointing replicas serving directory "xxx.www.br." :
Master server is "server1.www.br"
        Last update occurred at Mon May  6 14:57:52 2002

Master server is "server1.www.br."
checkpoint scheduled on "server1.www.br.".
Replica server is "server2.www.br."
nisping: RPC error on server server2.www.br., error RPC:
Authentication error
checkpoint failed : Error in RPC subsystem

Does somebody know what is happenning here ?
