I use hostname. "domainname comes up with the same results as you get on all of our servers. A "man domainname" says this: domainname - show or set the system's NIS/YP domain name So I would say that if you are trying to show or set your system's NIS/YP domain name, then just type "domainname bsaeg" to set it and then when you type "domainname", it should give you what you are looking for. To get it to come up when your machine boots, put the "domainname bsaeg" command in your systems startup script. For mine I would put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local at the end with the following line: /bin/domainname bsaeg Steve ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2005 08:43:39 -0700 From: "Schott, Erik J Mr ANOSC/FCBS" <erik.schott-FCBS@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: RE: Problem Binding to Nis server To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <1E6A811986F80743838DF4C64D45891909923237@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" 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.

I usually don't worry about editing the files individually and let "authconfig" handle that all for me. For your hung machines, I'd boot in single-user-mode, disable ypbind "chkconfig ypbind off", boot the rest of the way up and then verify the config with "authconfig". -Steve ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2005 17:33:24 +0100 (CET) From: evdhn@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: How do you check the network speed of a Redhat machine.
