On our NIS servers we only allow binding to eth0 interface, ypserv.conf:
# Always allow access for localhost
255.0.0.0 127.0.0.0
255.255.252.0 192.168.16.0 (eth0)
That's not the documented format for ypserv.conf. It should say
something more like (untested, so it may need some modification):
127.0.0.0/8:*:*:none
192.168.16.0/255.255.252.0:*:*:none
*:*:*:deny
for what you seem to be looking for. Please see the manual page for
ypserv.conf or look at the commented entries in the default ypserv.conf
for examples.
The example you sent me works ;-) The only change is this line:
127.0.0.0/8:*:*:none must be 127.0.0.1:*:*:none
Thanks a lot it is an bit confusing that there are two config files
where we can specify access rules. In one config it works as desired an
in the other not. Will the ypserv.securenets file be obsoleted in the
future?
Thanks a lot for the info
