Hi,
While I was looking for some problems in the last network boot script, I
remember I added a line NISDOMAIN="EIJK" in /etc/sysconfig/network.
Also I added at one moment a line AMDOPTS='-y EIJK' in
/etc/sysconfig/amd.
I don't know if this can improve anything since my actual mistake was that the
NIS domain name was somewhere in uppercase and should have been in lowercase.
Hoping this could help,
