I want to enable NIS on my bsd box. The NIS server is another bsd box. I have run ypserv on the server, and ypbind on my box. Things seem ok, because ypcat, ypmatch etc work. But I am unable to log in on my machine with any user id on the server. Could it be something to do with bsd's policy of not servicing requests on non-priviledged ports ? Can someone help ? Thanks in advance Ritwik -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Daimler Benz Research Center India 302 A Somerset Apartments 137, Infantry Road 18 MG Road Bangalore 560 001 Bangalore 560 001 India India Tel : +91 80 286 1722 Fax : +91 80 286 1723 Mail : ritwik@dbrci.blr.daimlerbenz.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
