Thanks, but it's not quite what I'm looking for.
eg.
passwd nis files
Quote:
notfound
The lookup process works ok but the needed value was not found. The default action is `continue'.

What does 'continue' mean? If NIS was down (so the value was not found) would the system then look to the local files (/etc/passwd) for authentication? Or would it do something else?
Thanks
