I have NIS server (ypserv-2.12.1.tar.gz) and NIS client
(ypbind-mt-1.17.2.tar.gz) installed on two RH9 machines. The install went fine, but when I try to use it I get the following error from either the server or the client: # ypcat passwd No such map passwd.byname. Reason: Can't bind to server which serves this domain I have found others that have had this error, but those suggestions have not helped me so far. Here is some of my setup info: <clientAndServer># domainname poe <clientAndServer># more yp.conf domain poe broadcast <server>]# ls /var/yp/poe group.bygid netgroup.byuser rpc.byname group.byname netid.byname rpc.bynumber hosts.byaddr passwd.byname services.byname hosts.byname passwd.byuid services.byservicename mail.aliases protocols.byname ypservers netgroup protocols.bynumber netgroup.byhost publickey.byname No changes have been made to /etc/ypserv.conf or /var/yp/Makefile on either the client or the server. Any help would be greatly appreciated. p8oust7eh+ |
