Installing the new glibc and the new nis packages hasn't fixed (unfortunately)
the ybind problem.
Here are the bheaviour.
If i've clients and the server on the same subnet and i run ypbind on
clients with -broadcast option, everything works perfectly.
If my server is on a different subnet i must specify the server name
throught the ypserver directive in /etc/yp.conf on my clients. In this case
the ypbind fail to do the binding with the server (even if it pings
correctly).
It's a debian-sparc problem (nis or glibc i don't know) since i've tried the
same configuration with a pc (debian-slink) and in this case it works.
Here are version numbers:
Server
ii nis 3.3.1-1 Clients and daemons for the Network Informat
ii libc6 2.0.7.19981211 GNU C Library: shared libraries
Sparc Client (with kernel 2.2.9)
ii nis 3.3.2-1 Clients and daemons for the Network Informat
ii libc6 2.1.1-5.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and timezone
Any idea ?

Cristian Prevedello
