October 29, 1999 SECURITY UPDATE: ypserv

This package fixes several problems: 

- A bug allowed for all admins on a NIS domain to inject password
tables into the NIS server.
- A user on a NIS domain could change the login shell and GECOS
information (real name, etc.) of other users.
- There was a potential buffer overflow in the MD5 hash generation.
