Dear list members, i have reading Makefiles for building nis databases and realized there is an option "-b" for allowing hostnames to be retrieved from DNS.
Correct me if i am wrong but i understand all hostname spaces are made available for each of the nis domains one is managing after enabling such option. After managing to have yp lookuing up hostnames on DNS what would it be the rationale behind using netgroups for managing hostnames after they all have been made available through DNS usage. Thanks in advance.
