I am running my server with FreeBSD 2.2 and have a NIS client running Solaris 2.6. I have turned on "ypserv" and "ypbind" on FreeBSD but get errors whenever I try to send mail from the Solaris box to the FreeBSD box[cannot bind etc]. In addition I get other RPC errors etc too numerous to itemize, My question is exactly what options and daemons do I need to turn on in /etc/rc.conf to enable my FreeBSD server as a NIS server. I have tried various combinations with no success. Whenever I turn ypbind on, my PPP autodial quits working for no reason. I have scrounged thru all of the mailing lists and am unable to find much specific documentation regarding NIS.... # Network Information Services (NIS) options: ### nis_client_enable="YES" # We're an NIS client (or NO) nis_client_flags="-s -ypsetme" # Flags to ypbind (if enabled). nis_ypset_enable="NO" # Run ypset at boot time (or NO). nis_ypset_flags="" # Flags to ypset (if enabled). nis_server_enable="YES" # We're an NIS server (or NO) nis_server_flags="-n" # Flags to ypserv (if enabled). nis_ypxfrd_enable="YES" # Run rpc.ypxfrd at boot time (or NO). nis_ypxfrd_flags="" # Flags to rpc.ypxfrd (if enabled). nis_yppasswdd_enable="YES" # Run rpc.yppasswdd at boot time (or NO). nis_yppasswdd_flags="" # Flags to rpc.yppasswdd (if enabled). I have done all of the "/var/yp" stuff correctly, I believe. Thanks for any input. Also,do I have to run Kerberos to make all of this happen?
