Ummm.... amd _can_ use nis maps. consider: /usr/etc/amd -r -d larc.nasa.gov -l syslog -x noinfo -y south /ump amd.ump where: -d is the domain -l is the loggin facility -x is the loggin level -y is the ypdomain /ump is the mountpint ( Universal Mount Point ) amd.ump is the nis propegated map. We have been using this for quite some time and it works very well. One note... do NOT put the full path to the amd map. it will confuse things. -branson -- ======================================================================= branson matheson Public: ebm@visi.net http://visi.net/~ebm/ system administrator No work address yet.
