Hi, After installing the last glibc's on redhat as well as the updated portmapper etc. I finally got YP to work. I run portmap, ypserv, yppasswd and ypbind on the YP server and did a 'make' in /var/yp. On the client I run portmap and ypbind. On both I've set the YP domainname properly. However, I try to set up a client on another subnet (IP 207..., not IP 207) and try to see if it works there too. Unfortunately it doesn't, and I have some clue why, it's probably because the client broadcasts to the 206.xx.xx.255 broadcast address to see if it can find a YP server which obviously it won't find. Two questions: Is it in some way possible to have a YP server in one class C, and have clients in another class C use this server? How does one set up a backup YP server that, on startup, downloads it's information from the primary one ? (similar to DNS) Thanks, Fred Leeflang -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
