I have problems using my freebsd-3.3 box as a NIS client. I've succesfully set up NIS on my Slackware Linux by adding + to /etc/passwd and /etc/group, setting domainname and starting ypbind. On freebsd I did this: domainname "the right domain" ypbind As far as I understand I should then be able to get a host by issuing ypwhich But it runs for about 2 minuttes (and then i cancel it). I've browsed this mailing list to find answers/directions for the setup. All I found was "man nis" and reading this didn't help. The master is a Digital Unix 4.0d.
