- There's a bug in the SunSolve database somewhere (don't have access to it
- right now) which indicates that this can be a problem and that sometimes
- you have to do a "cd /var/yp; rm netid.time; make netid" in addition to
- the "make group", in order for group changes to be propagated properly.

- One of our other sites also had problems with group membership changes not
- being picked up, and this turned out to be the problem.
