Package: nis
Version: 3.17-6
Severity: normal
I recently noticed that none of the ypxfr_XperY commands actually
did anything. A little investigation showed that the command
/usr/lib/yp/yphelper --maps localhost
never returns anything on a slave server. For some reason the
ypxfr_XperY cmomands would only transfer maps listed by this
command.
Reading the source code of yphelper shows that this is intentional
because it would only show the maps that this server is master for.
So we either need to change the way ypherlp works or change the
ypxfr_XperY to do something else.
Thanks!
