I don't think I understand the NIS Howto. I was left with the impression
that with libc6 installed, I would not need ypbind because libc6 knows
about NIS all by itself.
I have set up another system as an NIS server (running ypserv), but my
client system cannot seem to see the information from th

I believe all RPC services bind to 0.0.0.0 (all interfaces), and there
is no way to change this, from what I've read it would require a ton of
code to be changed. I
Hi Guys,
I' setting up NIS on my server (unstable). This machine has 2
interfaces: eth0 (10.0.0.150) which is connected the internet, and eth1
(192.168.1.1), connected to my internal network.
I followed the Debian-NIS doc, which is in /usr/share/doc/nis/
Now, when I start NIS, I see that ypbin

Could be a couple things...the /etc/passwd file on the client machine needs
"+::" put in it in order to recognize the NIS server accounts. Also, I
seem to recall that only uids > 1000 are allowed by default when using NIS,
in Debian, but it's been a while and I can't test this anymore. I

For the client it is best to setup it up with
passwd: files nis
group: files nis
shadow: files nis
this should work fine on the client side, the server side looks good.
