Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'm using a very simple amd.map on a NIS client to mount users' home directories from a NFS server, which is also the NIS master. I haven't figured out how to build a master amd.map yet. Both the master and client are running FreeBSD2.2.6R. Things are working; users can log in (to the client) and mount their home directories without problems. However, I noticed the following message in the NIS master's syslog whenever the NIS client boots up: ypserv[100]: embedded slash in map name "/etc/amd.map" -- possible spoof attempt from : What does that mean? I must have missed something in the NIS client/server setup? Thanx for any hints/pointers. fbsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
