There are two things you must do. First, your /etc/yp.conf file must be properly set up. It should have a line such as: domain <blah> broadcast or domain <blah> server <bleah> Then, in /etc/sysconfig/network you should have a line that sets the variable NISDOMAIN, a la: NISDOMAIN=foo This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/ypbind and sets the domain name using that variable. As a general rule, if you can't figure out how to keep a configuration static through a reboot, look through the init script that starts the relevant service. It will usually tell you what file(s) you need to look at, and/or what variable(s) to set. Most often, it will be a file in /etc/sysconfig. - -- Derek Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] - --------------------------------------------- I prefer mail encrypted with PGP/GPG!
