Basically, if anybody has amd working via NIS, I would like to know how. I can just about manage it using an intricate and delicate sequence of yppull's and NIS re-exports to ypserv's feeding only loopback nets, but, that is not right.
Hi,
Sorry for my half-empty mail, i am to tired :-(
I have a lot machines running with amd and NIS maps. They are running a mix of libc 5.4.23 and 5.4.33. OTOH it is just plain debian with one exception ypbind from ypclients-2.2-970318. NIS-Server are 1 Solaris master, 1 solaris slave and one Linux slave.
I tested am-utils a little bit and they were working with NIS maps without problems. But this was only on my 2 machine home-net with both machines being NIS-Server.
The biggest problem with NIS here is with the bound server being unreachable and coming back online: (E.g. i added a harddisk to the linux one) amd crashes and and i get lots of yp messages on the clients. I usually have to reboot then.
Ciao Dietmar
