Re: FreeBSD NIS client and Solaris NIS server problem...
Hello, I'm having a bit of trouble getting my FreeBSD workstation ( 5.4 PRERELEASE ) binding to our Solaris 8 NIS server. I do not get any warnings or errors when ypbind starts up, but if I do a 'rpcinfo localhost', it takes a very long time to come back with anything(stays in a 'nanslp' state the whole time), and trying to do a 'ypcat hosts' ( or an equivalent ypcat query ) times out with the error: $ ypcat hosts ypcat: no such map hosts.byaddr. reason: Can't bind to server which serves this domain if I run rpcbind manually with the -d flag I get the following message: $ rpcbind -d rpcbind debugging enabled. can't get local ip6 address: hostname nor servname provided, or not known Now, I dont have ipv6 compiled in the kernel, but is rpcbind dependent on it? Here are the parameters I'm using in rc.conf for nis: rpcbind_enable=YES nisdomainname=delta nis_client_enable=YES nis_client_flags=-S delta,engr-nis1,engr-nis2 Any info is appreciated, I would like to access my NFS home directory from my workstation :) Because rpcbind is a dependancy of ypbind, no (real) need to explicitly enable it... but it doesn't hurt. I personnaly use a very similar setup at work (Solaris NIS server and FreeBSD NIS client), and binding point to point the two works great: # grep nis /etc/rc.conf nisdomainname=domain nis_client_enable=YES nis_client_flags=-ypset -s -m -S domain,foor,bar # /etc/rc.d/ypbind start If ypwhich(1) don't tell you more on the hostname of NIS server, the problem may come from the configuration of the server, not the client. -- -jpeg. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
