I have a patch that makes it possible to send an YPPROC_CLEAR to any
host, not just localhost. YPPROC_CLEAR is basically used to flush NIS
connections, so that clients pick up changes done in the NIS maps right
away. Currently yp_mkdb can send this to localhost, but if the
NIS-server is in a jail, there is no localhost. This way YPPROC_CLEAR
can be sent to the NIS server in jails as well.
The patch is attached and also in bin/169911 [1]
Regards
