That is the client trying to register the ypbind service with the local portmapper. It fails, and so so rpcinfo -p. Because it fails with 'Operation not permitted' I'd say there's a 95% chance there's an ipchains or iptables rule installed that blocks something Try 'iptables -L' and/or 'ipchains -L' >The is no firewall in the system.

It is a local configuration problem, and it doesn't have anything to do with NIS, it just shows up when trying to use NIS Mike. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
