Sorry for the continual re-posts, but I mis-stated the problem... I am not running a slave server, but rather a client machine. following the nis.debian.howto document, I need to first stop, then start nis by typing:
/etc/init.d/nis stop /etc/init.d/nis start But I get a nice little message saying: /etc/init.d/nis: start-stop-daemon: command not found /etc/init.d/nis: start-stop-daemon: command not found /etc/init.d/nis: start-stop-daemon: command not found (yep, 3 times) So, I'm at the end of my rope, guess you could say I'm a dope on a rope. Thanks will be handed out in genoerous portions to anyone with any help... Mike the confused...
