Very painful issue - system NIS server non functional and whole network is on a go slow (with timeouts), I do not know of a workaround. I tried force etc. but it all still fails.
Interestingly nis installed on the clients - just seems to be this server upgrade so it may be a dependency (?) type thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979758 Title: package fails to configure on failing to find /etc/init.d/nis To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/979758/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
