Re: NIS Problem

["Jim Christiansen" <christiansen_j@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm running 100 client RedHat 9 boxes using one RedHat 9 NIS server.  
Everything is working fine.  It did take me a few days to get going as it 
was my first time at it and I'm quite isolated.

Things to check:

hosts.allow

hosts.deny

redhat-config-auth tabtabtab and setup the server by ip (in my case) and nis 
domainname- jargon could be bad here

nis domainname set?

ypconfig  in /etc

daemons running?

exports or nfs homes running (not necessary)

It took me a few days to get the yppassword to work for the clients, but it 
goes now.

Jim
