While this is not strictly a Linux question, it does involve some Linux
boxen (and a couple of Windows and FreeBSD systems :)
I have about 5 machines at home, networked together. Usually, about three
of them are in use at any given time. To save updating various bits of
info when I make a change that would affect them all (adding or renaming a
host, changing a user password etc.) would it be a good idea to use NIS/YP
or some such service? This way, I would only have to make a change on the
server and have it reflected on the various hosts.
What would be an alternative to NIS in this situation? LDAP?
cheers,
Rob
