Sorry for starting a new thread...but I am replying from work and the original emails are at home.
NIS problems on MDK 8.0. The NIS server is found on boot by the client. It is bound OK. The /etc/ns***.conf (forgot the name) file was correct. If you do not use the +:::::: notation anymore, then maybe I have been using out of date HOWTO info to set it up. What should I do with the passwd file? I tried removing it as well but this just stopped anyone logging on including root. Had to use the rescue disk to put it back again. Does anyone have a recent HOWTO for mdk 8.0 for NIS? I have also seen mention about yppasswd, do I have to set this up or does the ypserv rpm take care of this?
