I am also interested to have a NIS working NIS. The nis package from frozen seem to be broken. With this package installed, I can even boot. I got Starting NIS services: ypbind and then the machine hang forever. At frist I think the problem come form the NIS server (my sparc/Linux is the client) but other machines have nis running without problem. The only way to get out is to telnet to the machine and kill all the ypbind processes (There are 6, is it normal ?) By the way, my sparc IPC now just _scrawl_ launching even a simple vi (minimal buil) take several second. Linux is suppose to be faster the solaris, but actually it is at least twice as slow ? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PHAM Dinh Tuan | e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Laboratoire de Modelisation et Calcul | Tel: +33 4 76 51 44 23 BP 53, 38041 Grenoble cedex (France) | Fax: +33 4 76 63 12 63 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
