Hi
Running Centos 4 with one machine as YP server (ypserv 2.8) and one
as a yp client.
In the messages log of the server I constantly see messages like this:
Aug 12 12:28:46 sydsrv12 ypserv[20413]: refused connect from
192.168.0.56:38230 to procedure ypproc_match (jgc,shadow.byname;-1)

sydsrv56 is the client btw.
How can I find what program is trying to access the shadow.byname
map? I suspect (from the frequency) that it dovecot may be the culprit
The server does not have that map and on the client there is no
mention of shadow in the nsswitch.conf - all commented out.
Any clues please?
touch the file shadow.byname and use lsof + grep in a loop in a shell
script?
I'm not sure that that would help. The client is asking for the map
from the server (despite not being told to). If I create the file on the
client I don't think that will make any difference.
Appreciate the suggestion though.
