Dear List

I am runing Redhat 7 and I have installed YPservices (NIS)

When I run make  I get the following output:

gmake[1]: Entering directory `/var/yp/gordon.com'
Updating passwd.byname...
Updating passwd.byuid...
Updating group.byname...
yphelper: This program is for internal use from some
          ypserv scripts and should never be called
          from a terminal

Updating netid.byname...
Updating protocols.bynumber...

Updating mail.aliases...
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/var/yp/gordon.com'


Am I assuming that the users i am creating are in the passwd file in the
/var/vp/passwd.
Here is a copy of this file.

gorste:gsgcAE.tVg5Ng:502:0:gordon stewart:/home/gorste:/bin/bash

When I issue the command ypcat passwd I retieve no results.  Should I get a
list of the users that are
in the above.  The user gorste is not being set up. How can I resolved this.

Thanks for your help

Gordon
