high, I tried today to install a NIS Server on a PC with debian woody, but in vain.
The way was as following: -> apt-get install NIS (portmap was automatically installed too) -> during installation I was asked for NIS-Domainname: Einrichtung -> /etc/defaultdomain now contains Einrichtung -> Name of PC: linux_server -> /etc/hosts containes a row for localhost and one for linux_server.Einrichtung.local linux_server -> /etc/init.d/nis has got one change: NISSERVER=master -> no changes in /var/yp/Makefile. As long as I see, the Skript automatically detects if there are shadow passwords (my system uses them) -> no changes in /etc/ypserv.securenets -> With these settings I executed /usr/lib/yp/ypinit -m. The script suggested as NIS-Name the hostname (linux_server) -> As the script executes many errors are displayed, all similar to: "failed to send 'clear' to local ypserv: RPC: Program not registered" -> Then I restarted the NIS-Service: /etc/init.d/nis restart, which leads to the message: ypbind [binding to ypserver...........backgrounded] -> I checked if Portmap is running: ps -ef | grep portmap. Was succesful: daemon... -> ps -ef | grep ypbind leads to 4 rows with ypbind -> ps -ef | grep ypserv was not successful -> Then I checked rpcinfo -p localhost. Result: 4 rows with ypbind (ports 796 and 799) but no ypserv -> I restarted the pc 3 times, but no success Please help Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
