Hi Mark,
portmap is up and running.
ifconfig shows  UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST
It's using an OSA card
ypbind comes up with either version of yp.conf
i.e.   domain us.oracle.com broadcast
or    domain  us.orcacle.com   server pasysyp1.us.oracle.com
If I use the second version, I must add  pasysyp1 to /etc/hosts.
No error messages with the second version.    Use the "broadcast"
version on SLES8.

What kind of interface are you using?  Does it have "broadcast" specified on
it when you do an ifconfig command?

I don't know if the yp stuff requires portmap to be running or not.

Subject: ypbind on SLES9 error


Hi, I'm running SuSE SLES 9, kernel 2.6.5-7.97-s390x glibc-2.3.3-98.28 When I start ypbind, I get the following error: ypbind: RPC: Timed out ypbind:: broadcast: RPC: Can't encode arguments. My IP is x.x 54.18 netmask 255.255.252.0 network x.x.52.0 broadcast x.x.55.255 This works on my SLES8 servers. /etc/yp.conf domain us.oracle.com broadcast

The subnet has domain servers but broadcast doesn't seem to work.
If  I code yp.conf with server and IP instead of broadcast, ypbind comes up.
nsswitch.conf has
passwd: compat
group:  compat
hosts and services   files dns
everything else files
Any suggestions?
Betsie
