Hi All, Happy new year.

Problem I am having is with NIS. I have never played with it before now.
I am using MDK 8.0 and have currently 2 machines running this distro. I have to add a 
third.
Now I want to add NIS to the server. I have installed the ypserv on the server, ypbind 
and tools
on the clients. Edited the config files, but the makefile keeps falling over when 
trying to run 'clear'
signal on RPC on the ypserv. Does this mean anything to anyone?

Also from the client end, the ypbind fails to bind anything saying that the domain is 
not bound.

I have looked at the howtos, read a thick linux book and I am still none the wiser. I 
am already running NFS
so I know that portmapper is working fine. rpcinfo also reports that the ypserv/bind 
on the server/client are both
bound.

Can anyone shed any light on the situation or at least direct me to an clear 'text' 
for help?

Many thamks.

Dave.
