phk 1998/04/25 23:32:13 PDT Modified files: etc rc.conf rc.network Log: Jean-Simon Pendry's paper on amd refers to the use of "ypcat -k" against the "master map" to get the list of mount point/amd map correspondences, and using that list as command-line arguments to start amd. When I tried to do this with the existing /etc/rc* scripts, I found that I couldn't do this by modifying only /etc/rc.conf: that file gets sourced very early by /etc/rc, well before any networking functionality is present, let alone NIS. Further, I wasn't able to figure out a way to use various levels & types of quoting to defer evaluation of the string to a point subsequent to NIS initialization. As a result, I resorted to hacking /etc/rc.network -- but I did it in a way that ought to be reasonably general, and avoid breakage for anyone else.
