I'm trying to configure my Linix Box as NIS client. The NIS master is a Digital UNIX machine and known to be doing NIS o.k. The yp client version i'm running is yp-clients-2.2, my Linux kernel is 2.1.122. When i try to start ypbind on Linux with the -debug option enabled, the following output is produced (harun.az1.de is the NIS domain master): root@sindbad:/# ypbind -debug cleared entry for domain az1: server 0.0.0.0, port 0 parsing config file Trying entry: ypserver harun.az1.de parsed ypserver harun.az1.de getenv: hosts bindto_server: domain az1, host harun.az1.de received signal 17 cleared entry for domain az1: server 0.0.0.0, port 0 parsing config file Trying entry: ypserver harun.az1.de parsed ypserver harun.az1.de getenv: hosts bindto_server: domain az1, host harun.az1.de received signal 11 received signal 17 cannot create write lock: Invalid argument received signal 17 cannot create write lock: Invalid argument received signal 17 ... >> the last 2 lines repeat forever in a 2 sec. interval All yp* programs refuse to start with the message: No such ... Reason: Can't bind to server which serves this domain Anybody out there with an idea what's about ? Thanks ! -- Andreas G.
