Hi Andrew. Type "domainname bsaeg", minus the quotes, at the command prompt and see if your NIS clients can bind. You may have to stop and start ypbind to accomplish this. After that, run ypwhich to make sure you are communicating with the NIS server. Good luck. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew.Bridgeman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Andrew.Bridgeman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 6:22 AM To: wang_zc@xxxxxxxxxxx; General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Problem Binding to Nis server Using one machine as an example it says none when i do type domainname it should say bsaeg.
