Well from the text of the error message it sounds like ypbind is not recognizing XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (itself) as being a member of the -S list. I don't use -S myself but I would suggest first substituting the IP address for the name in your -S list. If that makes the problem go away then you know the root of the problem is in resolving the name to the address and can narrow your search to that issue. For that matter you could probably just substitute 127.0.0.1 or localhost for the slave server's hostname in your -S list and be done with it. -Mitch >Yes... I am using -S (not -s).
