ypserv
Does OpenBSD ypserv serve multiple nis domain simultaneously ? Thanks in advance.
openbsd/ypserv/openldap
Hi folks, how should i add an entry to openldap that ypserv will use it for binding ? This entry will need to have a password and should not be confused with a valid posix user entry. How have you done on your ypldap/openldap implementation ? Thanks in advance.

I hope you did or you are exporting a root password!!!). Like I said, everything, including /etc/*.db (output of pwd_mkdb), builds OK.

ypserv problem
I didn't see anything related in the archives, so apologies if it was there and I missed it. When I add a new user and rebuild the YP files, the new user is not visible on client machines until I kill ypserv and start it again. What am I missing? -- Mark Leisher

I can forward it your way, if and when I do. -- Best Regards Edd --- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett
