I am running 2.1.7 on a 486-33MHz host named scar. I am attempting to use NIS to authenticate logins on this machine. Everything starts up without any error messages, but only local login ids and passwords are accepted at a login prompt. I have added the '+' entries to /etc/passwd, /etc/group and /etc/aliases and have uncommented the NIS entry in /etc/host.conf. I start ypbind successfully, then ypwhich shows I am bound to the master server in my domain named gie (a Sun Ultra Enterprise 4000 running Solaris 2.5.1). When I run 'ypwhich scar' on the server I get an error message of "ypwhich: can't call ypbind on scar: RPC: program/version mismatch; low version = 2, high version = 2". Running 'ypwhich -V2 scar' returns gie. Running rpcinfo and grepping for yp on gie yields (header added); program version netid address service owner 100004 2 udp 0.0.0.0.3.4 ypserv superuser 100004 1 udp 0.0.0.0.3.4 ypserv superuser 100004 1 tcp 0.0.0.0.3.5 ypserv superuser 100004 2 tcp 0.0.0.0.128.10 ypserv superuser 100004 2 ticotsord \000\000\020X ypserv superuser 100004 2 ticots \000\000\020[ ypserv superuser 100007 3 udp 0.0.0.0.128.14 ypbind superuser 100007 2 udp 0.0.0.0.128.14 ypbind superuser 100007 1 udp 0.0.0.0.128.14 ypbind superuser 100007 3 tcp 0.0.0.0.128.11 ypbind superuser 100007 2 tcp 0.0.0.0.128.11 ypbind superuser 100007 1 tcp 0.0.0.0.128.11 ypbind superuser 100007 3 ticlts \000\000\020{ ypbind superuser 100007 3 ticotsord \000\000\020\177 ypbind superuser 100007 3 ticots \000\000\020\203 ypbind superuser 100009 1 udp 0.0.0.0.3.22 yppasswdd superuser Running rpcinfo -p scar on scar yields; program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 rpcbind 100000 2 udp 111 rpcbind 100007 2 udp 676 ypbind 100007 2 tcp 678 ypbind 100005 1 udp 682 mountd 100005 1 tcp 683 mountd Is there a place on the FreeBSD web site to look for NIS related problems? Does anyone know of any solutions or workarounds for this problem? I have the O'Reilly book on NFS and NIS but it does not seem to address this problem. Any help will be appreciated very much.
