Re: ypbind fix?
Max [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Has anyone been able to find a fix for the dreaded ypbind hang? From the mailing list archives, I understand that using either ypbind-3.3 or ypbind-mt-1.4 will solve the problem, but neither one is available in a Debian package. So, would the maintainer be willing to upgrade the nis package? If not, can someone supply me with a compiled version of ypbind? I have an old SPARCStation 2 with a tiny amount of disk space that prevents me from installing gcc and compiling it myself. I've never had any problem with ypbind and I've been using Debian/Sparc with a NIS setup since December. I'm currently using the nis_3.3.1-1 package from slink. Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Search through the debian-sparc archives for ypbind to see a description of the problem. To summarize, ypbind hangs if you don't specify the -debug -broadcast options. Apparently, this bug only exists in ypbind-mt-1.3 (the version in nis_3.3.1-1). I'm not sure how you were able to get around it.

Does your the /etc/yp.conf file contain any un-commented lines? Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No. I was able to get the same version of ypbind-mt to work perfectly with the same configuration on an i386, so something is wrong with the SPARC version. Which kernel are you using?
