[svlug] Linux working with Solaris?

[Nomad the Wanderer]

When I put 

passwd: compat

in /etc/nsswitch and comment out the other passwd line it breaks even
more.  It had previously let me do a "su - haro" but when I changed
it to the compat line I get an error "su: user haro does not exist"
even though a "ypmatch haro" does find a correct match.
