[wplug] NIS over SSH

Guys, does anyone know if there is a special configuration needed for
machines belonging to an NIS domain to be reachable by SSH?

Right now I have 20 machines authenticating to an NIS server, and mounting
users' $HOME over NFS just fine, when sitting at the keyboard of these
machines.

BUT, when I SSH over to any one of them, I authenticate, and immediately
the connection is dropped. ssh -v doesn't give out any valuable
information, it just tells me that I authenticate correctly, and then the
session exits.

Any hints?

Thanks
