Hi,
I've got an odd issue I am surprised exists and even more surprised I can't resolve. I have a Solaris 9 client set up for NIS on a new domain to two Fedora 7 NIS servers. The DHCP server is on an Active Directory server. If I don't use DHCP on the Solaris 9 client, all is well. If I do, the system hangs waiting for NIS. Digging further, ypbind doesn't bind to the two servers defined by ypinit -c. # ypwhich Domain mydomain not bound on thishost. # ypcat passwd Nov 29 13:01:17 thishost ypbind[638]: NIS server not responding for domain "mydomain"; still trying Nov 29 13:01:37 thishost ypbind[639]: NIS server not responding for domain "mydomain"; still trying But if I set the yp servers with ypset, all works well. # pkill ypbind # /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind -ypsetme ypbind -ypsetme: allowing local ypset! (this is insecure) # ypset bt-nis1 Nov 29 13:03:33 thishost ypbind[646]: Set domain request from local host : setting server for domain mydomain to bt-nis1 # ypwhich bt-nis1 # ypcat passwd | grep kyle # ypcat passwd | grep ktucker ktucker:!!:500:14:Kyle Tucker:/home/ktucker:/bin/sh Hosts are definitely right in /etc/hosts and listed in ypservers file, thus it working when not using DHCP. Any clues? -- - Kyle |
