From my working system:
Here is my yp.conf- # /etc/yp.conf - ypbind configuration file # Valid entries are # #domain NISDOMAIN server HOSTNAME # Use server HOSTNAME for the domain NISDOMAIN. # #domain NISDOMAIN broadcast # Use broadcast on the local net for domain NISDOMAIN # #ypserver HOSTNAME # Use server HOSTNAME for the local domain. The # IP-address of server must be listed in /etc/hosts. # domain linux-thin1.blablabla.bla server 192.168.1.175 ypserver 192.168.1.175
and [root@linux-thin1 root]# cat /etc/ypserv.conf # # ypserv.conf In this file you can set certain options for the NIS server, # and you can deny or restrict access to certain maps based # on the originating host. # # See ypserv.conf(5) for a description of the syntax. #
# Some options for ypserv. This things are all not needed, if # you have a Linux net.
# Should we do DNS lookups for hosts not found in the hosts table ? # This option is ignored in the moment. dns: no
# How many map file handles should be cached ? files: 30
# xfr requests are only allowed from ports < 1024 xfr_check_port: yes
# The following, when uncommented, will give you shadow like passwords. # Note that it will not work if you have slave NIS servers in your # network that do not run the same server as you.
# Host : Domain : Map : Security # * : * : passwd.byname : port * : * : passwd.byuid : port
# Not everybody should see the shadow passwords, not secure, since # under MSDOG everbody is root and can access ports < 1024 !!! # : * : shadow.byname : port # : * : passwd.adjunct.byname : port
# If you comment out the next rule, ypserv and rpc.ypxfrd will # look for YP_SECURE and YP_AUTHDES in the maps. This will make # the security check a little bit slower, but you only have to # change the keys on the master server, not the configuration files # on each NIS server. # If you have maps with YP_SECURE or YP_AUTHDES, you should create # a rule for them above, that's much faster. # * : * : * : none
AND [root@linux-thin1 root]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=linux-thin1.blablabla.bla
NISDOMAIN=linux-thin
Hope this helps,
Jim
