Hello, I tried to use the nis 1.20 package but have a problem: I setup a server on my machine, but when I run ypbind it makes endless connections:
marin54# !y ypserv -d [Welcome to the NYS YP Server, version 0.18 (with securenets)] Find securenet: 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.0 Find securenet: 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ypserv.conf: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:*:0:0:2 ypproc_domain_nonack("puceron") [From: 127.0.0.1:1595] connect from 127.0.0.1 -> OK. ypproc_domain_nonack("puceron") [From: 127.0.0.1:1597] connect from 127.0.0.1 -> OK. ypproc_domain_nonack("puceron") [From: 127.0.0.1:1599] connect from 127.0.0.1 -> OK. ypproc_domain_nonack("puceron") [From: 127.0.0.1:1601] connect from 127.0.0.1 -> OK. ypproc_domain_nonack("puceron") [From: 127.0.0.1:1603] connect from 127.0.0.1 -> OK. [etc]. This brings my machine to its knees unless I kill ypbind. I don't know what is wrong and have setup NIS as said in the NIS HOWTO. The only difference I find is: marin# rpcinfo -u localhost ypserv program 100004 version 1 ready and waiting program 100004 version 2 ready and waiting where in the HOWTO only the second line is here. Do you have any idea of what can be wrong? --
