Post your nsswitch.conf also -----Original Message----- From: shrike-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:shrike-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Christiansen Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2003 11:09 AM To: shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: NIS Problem 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.
