Eric,
Have you set up the NIS for contacts and authentication in Directory 
Access?

The NIS setup section of <http://www.gl.umbc.edu/root/macosx/> was helpful, 
all we had to do was follow the steps for integrating the afs token to the 
main login (instructions at <http://www.ibiblio.org/macsupport/kerberos/>, 
and then add the NIS info for our domain in directory access).
