Hi, I use a FreeBSD machine (2.1.5) as an NIS server. I have to serve a passwd file of 16214 entries and this will keep growing. Right now, when building the maps, I can't get more then 16204 entries in there. With different builds, the missing entries change, they are not always the same. Does this mean these is an absolute limit of 16204 records one can put in an NIS map? If so, why such strange number? Where does the problem lie? In yp_mkdb or in the ndbm lib? Have anyone seen something like this before? Thanks a lot, Yves Lepage
