something is wrong with portmapper then, or theres a firewall preventing ocmmunication, NIS should start working once you fix that. that is, when you can do rpcinfo -p and get back results(it should take less then 1 second) then NIS has a better chance of working. any firewall on the system? another thing to try is to shutdown all rpc services and restart them one at a time running rpcinfo -p at each stage. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
