$output = shell_exec("ypcat $nis_domain $nis_host passwd");
$lines=split("\n",$output);
foreach ($lines as $k=>$v)
{
list($login_nis,$pw_nis)=split(":",$v);
if ($login_nis != $login)continue;
//login trovata: ora si verifica la password
$salt=substr( $pw_nis , 0 ,2);
$pass_cript=crypt($password, $salt);

yp_cat is lacking in PHP5 - this is a suitable (slow, forking) replacement...
<?php
$handle = popen( 'ypcat passwd.byname', 'r' );
while (($line = fgets($handle, 1024)) !== FALSE) {
list($user,$pass,$uid,$gid,$gcos,$home,$shell) = explode (':', $line);
list($name,$room,$work,$home,$position) = explode (',', $gcos);
## Do Stuff ##
}
pclose( $handle );
?>
