NIS and RedHat 9 GUI login

I just got NIS configured and am having a problem. If I try to login to accounts through a shell, it works fine. However, if I try to log into the same account through the GUI login screen for RedHat 9, it tells me that the user name or password is wrong.

As a test, I created an account called Test locally and it works in the GUI. The reason it works is because when I create that new account locally on the machine, it adds it into my /etc/passwd file. So, how do I get the RedHat GUI login to go check the NIS server and authenticate?
