Name : ypserv Product : Fedora 18 Version : 2.29 Release : 8.fc18 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 problems with accessing map files. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Feb 4 2013 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.29-8 - Stop ypserv daemon temporary when reading info about maps * Mon Jan 28 2013 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.29-7 - Open maps with no blocking for reading * Mon Jan 21 2013 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.29-6 - Open database files with correct mode - Make rebuilding maps during upgrade a bit more clever * Fri Nov 30 2012 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.29-5 - Build daemons and yppush with full relro - Move rpc.yppasswdd.env into /usr/libexec * Fri Nov 9 2012 Honza Horak <[email protected]> - 2.29-4 - Add missing break in switch -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #896612 - rpc.ypxfrd doesn't support the needed database type https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896612 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
