Is this the NIS server, or the NIS client? I'm about to try installing potato on a machine at work, and I need to be able to work off our MIS department's NIS server on a Solaris box upstairs. This works just fine with RH 6.2, so I'm guessing it'll be fine with potato, but confirmation before the install would be nice. Will that work? Richard
