Name : ypserv Product : Fedora 16 Version : 2.26 Release : 9.fc16 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 aliases file path in /var/yp/Makefile and adds a code to respect NISDOMAIN environment variable when starting ypserv service. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jan 12 2012 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-9 - Added ypserv-pre-setdomain to respect NISDOMAIN environment variable and set domainname if empty - Added autoreconf call (thus .path patch modified to keep impact) - Patch .aliases fixed Resolves: #699826 * Mon Nov 28 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-8 - Fixed returning success when shadow file is not writable Resolves: #747335 * Fri Nov 25 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-7 - Fixed empty domain handling in ypinit script Resolves: #751427 - Added a wrapper script to use all variables correctly in the unit file Resolves: #755775 * Mon Oct 10 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-6 - Made error messages in yppasswdd more accurate Resolves: #695754 * Fri Sep 30 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-5 - Rebuild with new gdbm-1.9.1 * Fri Sep 30 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-4 - Added passwd.adjunct support in yppasswdd to recognize password format correctly when changing password using yppasswd Resolves: #699667 * Wed Aug 31 2011 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.26-3 - fixed hiding the change request when external script is used in rpc.yppasswdd -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #699826 - ypinit -m fails with No rule to make target `/etc/mail/aliases' https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=699826 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
