Good morning, everyone.

I have just gone through the Linux NIS How-to and I think I have my
Linux machine set up as a backup NIS server. The master server on my
company's network is an old NCR Unix box, if that makes any difference.
My question is, short of stopping the NIS service on the master server,
how do I verify my installation on my Linux box?

I've viewed the files on the backup using ypcat, and all the files look
ok. Is there anything else I can do to make sure that the next time NIS
on the master dies, the backup server takes over?

The Linux server is RH 6.2, running ypbind-1.7-0.6.x, yp-tools-2.4.1,
and ypserv-1.3.9-3.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
