The problem is simply that I want to use a 2.2.2 box as a NIS slave server with a 2.1.7 box as a NIS master. However, when pushing from the master with % yppush -d XYZ amd.home yppush: Transfer request refused by ypserv On the slave side I get messages like: ypserv[24772]: couldn't find master for map amd.home@XYZ ypserv[24772]: host at ZYX (134.147.xxx.yyy) may be pulling my leg Needless to say, all clients (2.2.2 and 2.1.7) are ypbound to the NIS master. Also, I tried w/ and w/o securenets, no change. On the slave exists an empty directory /var/yp/XYZ.
