SMC Help Please
We changed our root password on one of our Master NIS machines. We tried going into the SMC after the password change and it keeps failing for root login. I can login to the server via the root account. Just cannot open the SMC with the root account. This user is required to manage the users. Ideas/Solutions? THanks a bunch.

One idea - never put root in NIS - if you lose the network, you won't be able to login to the root account.

We don't have root in the NIS configuration.
