I tried to ask this once, but didn't get a response, so I'll try one more time...
After upgrading one of our machines to hamm, I can no longer rsh to the machine. /etc/hosts.equiv consists of one line containing an nis netgroup alias (e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED], where local_hosts are hosts in our local network). If I write the names of hosts in our network in this file, I can use rsh, but I would rather use the alias. Currently, /etc/nsswitch.conf contains the line: netgroup: files nis [NOTFOUND=return] db For passwd and group, I can use the word "compat", but this does not seem to work for netgroup (and in the documentation, only passwd and group are mentioned). Anyone have any ideas how I can use the alias, or where else I might ask? (Well, if I don't get an answer here, I'll probably e-mail the author....) Kevin P.S. Someone mentioned a few days ago that there was a new web site specifically for Linux support. Unfortunately, I deleted that message. Can someone e-mail me the name of that web site? Also, is this mailing list archived anywhere on the web? ----- Kevin Squire [EMAIL PROTECTED] Research Student Nakajima Research Laboratory Tokyo Institute of Technology -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
