ypbind problem
Hello! I'm using Suse 6.2. I am trying to transfer ypclient to broadcast mode unsuccessfully ( ypset works Ok, other platforms work Ok in broadcast mode ) When running "ypbind -broadcast -debug" , I get: broadcasting for domain compugen.co.il broadcast: RPC: Timed out. There are 3 ypbin binaries: /usr/sbin/ypbind-mt /usr/sbin/ypbind-3.3 /usr/sbin/ypbind_bsd and all yield to same result Any recommendations would be highly appreciated Elya Guyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's not nessesary your real domain, you mai call it "BLAH" for example. also check that on client machine you have domain 'YOUR NISDOMAIN NAME' server 'YOUR_YPSERVER_IP' ^^ has to be IP address, hostname won't work in /etc/yp.conf on server side run 'ypserv -debug' to check if it recieves request from client.

Re: ypbind problem
Why not ? from "NIS-Howto" - Old ypbind versions do a broadcast to find a running NIS server. This is insecure, due the fact that anyone may install a NIS server and answer the broadcast queries. Newer Versions of ypbind (ypbind-3.3 or ypbind-mt) are able to get the server from a configuration file - thus no need to broadcast. - So , if you really need client to broadcast download ypbind 3.3 , compile it , and enjoy.

Re: ypbind problem
So , if you really need client to broadcast download ypbind 3.3 , compile it , and enjoy. Let me understand , you're telling there was broadcast feature in ypbind 3.3 and now it's thrown away? Why then it tries to send broadcasts over the network?
