Hi, all. I encountered such a problem. Platform: SunOS 5.8 sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210
While I replaced IPFilter 3.4.32 with a new 3.4.35, NIS doesn't work. $id # or $id <some_uid> hangs. which cause ssh or some other app using NIS/NIS+ all hangs. I tried with nisping to show all NIS servers and just proved that they're all in allowed list. both directions: in and out. Then I started manipulating all rules, changing sequences, cut numbers. But each time I update rules in file, remove all rules with $ ipf -F a and start with new rules in file $ ipf -f myrules For the first half an hour, everything works fine even including NIS. Half an hour later, everything works except for NIS. $ id # starts to hang again. I even tried # pass out from any to any # pass in from any to any It just doesn't last longer than half an hour. I tried google, but no output really helps. some archives seems to have some description about the similar problem, but I couldn't find an answer. Any one familiar with this?
