Hi,

Since a few weeks NIS functionality has been broken. The "domainname"
doesn't get set during booting. I just re-installed cooker and the
problem persisted.

how I boot my system at the moment:

let it boot
login as root
"domainnane EIJK" EIJK = my NIS domain
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind restart
/etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs restart

I beleive that the nisdomain can be set by the DHCP client

on the client /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info shows:

IPADDR=192.168.1.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
HOSTNAME=stefan
DOMAIN=eijk.nl
NISDOMAIN=EIJK
DNS=192.168.1.1
DHCPSID=192.168.1.1
DHCPGIADDR=0.0.0.0
DHCPSIADDR=192.168.1.1
DHCPCHADDR=00:10:5A:D0:34:96
DHCPSHADDR=00:00:F8:75:9B:77
DHCPSNAME=
LEASETIME=86400
RENEWALTIME=43200
REBINDTIME=75600

Or by some kind of file (during installation you're asked if you use yp
and which domain you belong to, I've filled those in too, but it doesn't
help).
