I'd appreciate it if I could get a pointer to the solution to a
problem that _must_ have been solved already: systems employing the
/etc/shadow file for password storage fail to authenticate
prospective pcnfsd users. The pcnfsd as delivered - or as
compiled from Sun's PC-NFS source - is unaware that the encrypted
password doesn't live in /etc/passwd anymore. (Or is it just that
the getpwent(3c) functions aren't aware of it?)
Anyway - please send pointers, directions, code/code-fragments,
whatever to me at

By the way, this is for ISC 2.0.2 and their ethernet/nfs package.
(I also have an ESIX Rev. D system; it seems to work just fine...)
Thank you very much.
