We have a Solaris based YP server. On a fresh install I set /etc/yp.conf to: domain insignia broadcast
and set NISDOMAIN to "insignia" in /etc/conf.d/domainname. If I run "ypbind -debug" I get: >speyburn ~ # ypbind -debug >parsing config file >Trying entry: domain insignia broadcast >parsed domain 'insignia' broadcast >add_server() domain: insignia, broadcast >[Welcome to ypbind-mt, version 1.17.2] > >do_broadcast() for domain 'insignia' is called >Answer for domain 'insignia' from server 'panther.internal.local' >leave do_broadcast() for domain 'insignia' >Pinging all active server. >Pinging all active server. The YP server is correctly identified. I can ping it OK in another window. However if I do a ypwhich in another window I get: >speyburn ~ # ypwhich >can't yp_bind: Reason: Domain not bound It doesn't make any difference if I use the "-broken-server" flag. This was working fine on the machine which failed and I'm in the process of replacing, and I'm pretty sure I didn't do any more than the above. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
