making the command more efficient
*Many of you had an issue last week when using NFS as you had differing GID & UID's between systems - when attempting to mount the home directory from the VM2 you received various permission issues. In case you did not experience it, we will intentionally create this issue and then correct it with NIS.
*Run the following command
cat grep /home /etc/passwd | grep home
*Look at the existing users on VM 3 and compare them with the same users on VM 2. Find one whose credentials differ (Specifically, a user name that exists on both machines, but has a different UID). If you have no such user, create one.
*For example on VM 3:
*Now we will fix this problem by making this machine use NIS for user information
*Change users back to root
 
===Part C: Client Configuration===
*Install ypbind on your vm3.
