Betsie,

Sorry, but I've already exceeded the limits of my NIS expertise.

Subject: Re: ypbind on SLES9 error


Hi Mark,
portmap is up and running.
ifconfig shows  UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST
It's using an OSA card
ypbind comes up with either version of yp.conf
i.e.   domain us.oracle.com broadcast
or    domain  us.orcacle.com   server pasysyp1.us.oracle.com
If I use the second version, I must add  pasysyp1 to /etc/hosts.
No error messages with the second version.    Use the "broadcast"
version on SLES8.
