Hi, once again I have to bother you with a question on NIS/YP on 2.2.2-RELEASE machines. How can I avoid that the NIS master server tries to push maps to itself ? This fails because yppush: status returned by ypxfr: Master's version not newer Another "problem", which may be related to the NIS configuration is that I don't get the entry of the GECOS field for one NIS user in sendmail's `vrfy' on the NIS master server -- just the <mail adress> itself -- though I can see no difference in his and other's entries in the NIS master.passwd. It works, however, on other machines which are bound the the same NIS server.
