YP/NIS, NIS+ and LDAP users should be aware that it’s possible to have conflict with users configured in here with the result that an error will occur.
You should ensure that local user’s home accounts are located on local filesystems - e.g. creating a new entry in /home when it’s mounted with automount will not work and as such the user may not be created.
