The following reply was made to PR bin/98625; it has been noted by GNATS. From: PaulFM <paulfm@me.umn.edu> To: Maxim Konovalov <maxim@macomnet.ru> Cc: bug-followup@freebsd.org Subject: Re: bin/98625: ypserv ignores the -n option (it always acts like -n has been specified) Date: Thu, 08 Jun 2006 13:06:34 -0500 Further tests have found something very interesting. 1. The real issue is - ypserv seems to ALWAYS do dns lookups IF the hosts map is empty. Adding one entry (localhost) causes all versions to work as expected (un-patched, new and old). 2. My previous "FIX" is not a fix, but was accompanied by a change in another input to the problem (the hosts map on the test setup had entries in it - I didn't set-up the test maps). A back check found that the original version of ypserv on that machine did not do dns lookups. So the workaround is to make sure you have at least one entry in your hosts map. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The views and opinions expressed above are strictly those of the author(s).
