Migrating NIS+ to LDAP

Verify LDAP-UX Client Services

Log in to the client system from another system using rlogin or telnet. Log in as a user in the directory and as a user in /etc/passwd to make sure both work.

Use the ls(1) or ll(1) command to examine files belonging to a user whose account information is in the directory. Make sure the owner and group of each file are accurate:

ll/tmp

ls -l

If any owner or group shows up as a number instead of a user or group name, the name service switch is not functioning properly. Check the file /etc/nsswitch.conf, your directory.
