for evaluation reasons we just installed the lite-version and configured that thing
on NAS Setting with a PDC; also setting the nis host who should deliver NIS information.
the logfile says:
UID and GID database synchronization ended with errors. Check logs for details.

so, when we look at status-hardware-logs; we see a logfile named GID_MAPPINGS_IMPORT -> seems like the dss knows the groups but did not accept: Actually the group exists
Synchronize error for group admin: no such group.
[2008.05.15 15:45:21] Synchronize error for group matl: no such group.
[2008.05.15 15:45:21] Synchronize error for group mrc: no such group.

somebody has any idea.... ?
