NIS/DNS problem

2007-12-25 8:36:00

The solution to my grief was to run ypbind -ypsetme before trying

ypset jts. BTW, jts, once bound, responds properly to NIS/DNS requests.

Thanks to:

Original message:

> NIS master: jts

> NIS slave: mustang

> DNS primary: jts

> DNS secondary: mustang

> OS (on both): SunOS 4.1.2

> As per the ypserv man page, we're now running "ypserv -d".

> As per /var/yp/Makefile, we changed "B=" to "B=-b".

> Symptoms:

> 1. It would now seem that no host can bind to jts. Everybody is

> 2. nslookup can successfully retrieve DNS data from jts. Ditto for mustang.

> 3. ypset on a client (e.g., lemon) seems to get rejected, e.g.,

> # ypset jts

> ypset: Sorry, ypbind on host lemon has rejected your request.
