I am working in a new network operations center that needs to standardize on a linux distribution, currently it seems to be leaning towards debian potato as thats what the unix admins want.(either that or mandrake)
I'm wondering what kind of support(if any) potato has for NIS+ (NIS w/shadow passwd support) I tried playin with NIS+ on slink about a year ago and hosed many machines during libc upgrades. because potato is glibc2.1, has anyone got a network running with potato boxen and NIS+ ? and possibly NFS as well. I'm also considering getting the machines equipped with dual NICs one for normal network and another for NIS/NFS between the server/client for maximum security. We would use freebsd but the graphics is i810 and is not supported under bsd (yet), it requires a kernel module which only linux has. nate ::: http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3:50pm up 5 days, 1:52, 2 users, load average: 0.02, 0.02, 0.00
