Name : ypserv Product : Fedora 15 Version : 2.24 Release : 6.fc15 URL : http://www.linux-nis.org/nis/ypserv/index.html Summary : The NIS (Network Information Service) server Description : The Network Information Service (NIS) is a system that provides network information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information) to all of the machines on a network. NIS can allow users to log in on any machine on the network, as long as the machine has the NIS client programs running and the user's password is recorded in the NIS passwd database. NIS was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP). This package provides the NIS server, which will need to be running on your network. NIS clients do not need to be running the server. Install ypserv if you need an NIS server for your network. You also need to install the yp-tools and ypbind packages on any NIS client machines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This is an update that fixes a failure when ypinit is being executed and domainname is not set. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Nov 28 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.24-6 - Fixed empty domain handling in ypinit script Resolves: #751427 * Thu May 12 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.24-5 - Changed the way how path is set in the previous change (#699826) * Fri May 6 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.24-4 - Change default aliases file location to /etc/aliases to correspond with default MTAs' config (#699826) * Tue Apr 26 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.24-3 - Fix problems found by static analysis - Added man page info about passing arguments to daemons -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #751427 - ypinit incorrectly identifies domainname when none is set. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751427 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
