i think i found the issue to this. In sasauth.conf under metadata server. NIS authentication uses PAM by default. 🙂 # Name: methods Authentication used. # At least one must be specified. Separate multiple entries # with spaces. # Authentication is performed in the order # specified, from left to right. # Each method is attempted until one is # found that has the user identity # (even if the password is not valid). # Values: # # pw - Use standard /etc/passwd - /etc/shadow authentication. # On some hosts, this also includes protected password databases # or OS-provided enhanced security. # # pam - Use PAM for authentication. The password database is also # used to determine the user's UID and GID. # pam.conf must be configured properly for sasauth.

Be sure to define the LDAP # parameters below. # # ext - Use a custom authentication mechanism. This mechanism is built # using the authentication kit, available from SAS Technical Support. methods=pw
