Is it possible to use a debian2 machine as a NIS+ client? I have many machines running as ordinary NIS clients, so I know that is not a problem.
I had a (rather brief) look at the site http://www-vt.uni-paderborn.de/~kukuk/linux/nisplus.html (mentioned in /usr/doc/libc6-doc/FAQ), and I get the impression from there that a patched version of a newer (non-stable) version of glibc2 is required. But perhaps that is just for a NIS+ server (which I don't need)? Does anybody have any experience with this? -- Gilbert Laycock email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maths and Computer Science, http://www.mcs.le.ac.uk/~glaycock Leicester University phone: (+44) 116 252 3902
