Hi guys, it's me again,
I didn't understand one thing about YP :
Some days ago, I "turned on" my YP. I did exactly like man said:
Copied master.passwd to /var/yp and run make.
Everything worked perfectly. No error message. :)
Today afternoon, I looked on YP's Makefile and JUST changed the
SOURCE directory configuration ($YPSRCDIR) including passwd and
master.passwd to a subdirectory of /var/yp.
Maked directory, edited master.passwd (to add a user)and ran make.
NO error message ! :) It got teh right master.passwd file in the dir I
had maked, I'm shure about it.
But when I tryed to login with the new user, FreeBSD doesn't find
him, neither finger. Explication : users DB wasn't updated.
Tryed to put back passwd and master.passwd in the old dir
(/var/yp), and nothing changed. DB wasn't updated. :(
What do I have to do ?
Thanks,
Alex Carlos
