Hmm.. On the slave, do a rm -rf /var/yp/your.domain, then run
ypinit again to re-initialize the database. That might help.

ypxfr and hosts.{byaddr,byname}

[Arrigo Triulzi]

Hello all,

I seem to be unable to get ypxfr to receive
hosts.{byaddr,byname} from the main NIS host. My secondary server
(slave for purists) complains about a DBM error:

ypxfr: Local dbm operation failed

similarly the scripts ypxfr_1perhour, etc. because, of course,
they run ypxfr. Needless to say even on server pushes the server sees
the error.

It is a problem only with this map (confusing I must say),

Ciao,

Arrigo
