Hi : I am setting up a self-nis client/server. (ie. the host runs both ypbind and ypserv) I am running a CURRENT at 96/02/10, and have these problems : 1. "ypcat SOMETHING" reports correct info, but will complain "No such map XXX.byXXX. Reason: No more records in map database" in the final line. But those files are in /vay/yp/NIS_DOMAIN/ 2. NIS is out of work in chroot environment. When I chroot someone, he can't resolve NIS anymore. ypwhich works, but not others. id, passwd, ypcat die. But I am sure that $CHROOT/etc/*passwd are set correctly. 3. root change yp-user's password needs OLD password. (I remembered that this has been fixed) 4. Should I upgrade my NIS-related files to the most recently current ?! If yes, which files I should compile ?! (yp*, libc ?!, passwd ?) Thanks for your help. -- 李 建 達 (Jian-Da Li) 交大資工 E-Mail : jdli@csie.nctu.edu.tw
