[Bug 1075234] Re: doesn't work with YP/NIS server defined in /etc/yp.conf
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I am unable to reproduce this bug. There is logic in /etc/init/ypbind.conf to clear the BROADCAST variable after it is set if yp.conf defines ypserver, and this seems to be working for me with your /etc/yp.conf. I am using 3.17-32ubuntu4.1. Please could you provide precise steps to reproduce this problem on a freshly installed 12.04.1 system? ** Changed in: nis (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075234 Title: doesn't work with YP/NIS server defined in /etc/yp.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1075234/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I am using 3.17-32ubuntu4.1. Absolutely, I can see the logic behind it. However, that variable does not get cleared on the systems I have tested it under - as I mentioned before, logs say that -broadcast is used. Therefore my conclusion is that ypserver entry in (or the whole) /etc/yp.conf is ignored. Please could you provide precise steps to reproduce this problem on a freshly installed 12.04.1 system? I'm using a script, which relevant part being: export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive export DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical HOSTS=/etc/hosts YPCONF=/etc/yp.conf YPBIND=/etc/init/ypbind.conf PASSWDFILE=/etc/passwd SHADOWFILE=/etc/shadow GROUPFILE=/etc/group GSHADOWFILE=/etc/gshadow printf \nxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\tnisserver\n $HOSTS printf \nnis\tnis/domain\tstring\tnis.domain | debconf-set-selections aptitude -y install nis echo +:: $PASSWDFILE echo + $SHADOWFILE echo +::: $GROUPFILE echo +::: $GSHADOWFILE printf \nypserver nisserver $YPCONF Then there's a restart. I had to add this line after the last one in order to make it work: sed -i 's:\tBROADCAST=-broadcast:#\tBROADCAST=-broadcast' $YPBIND I don't think I need to add that IP address, NIS domain and YP server entries are all correct as it simply worked before on 10.04. Actually now it doesn't even work there as the problem is the same in both versions. It affected my build on 10.04 as nis package got changed^Wbroken during the LTS cycle. Probably I should have filed that bug under 10.04 as what used to work just fine, got broken by a new version of nis package.

printf \nypserver nisserver $YPCONF Are you missing a final \n here? I just tried editing yp.conf, dropped the final \n, and reproduced your behaviour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075234 Title: doesn't work with YP/NIS server defined in /etc/yp.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1075234/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I was aware of it, even thought about it while I was replying to your email, and am pretty sure I had tested it WITH the newline and it hadn't made any difference. Anyway, as I said before, it used to work before the 10.04 got the new version (the one where /etc/init.d/yp* got introduced) as I had used that script fro a while. I'll try again at the earliest opportunity.
