I also use NIS, because it supports NFS-exports, mail-aliases, and netgroups in a lot of files.
Simply writing: # /bin/systemctl add-wants multi-user.target rpcbind.service is not enough. Sometimes boot is OK, sometimes not. Starting manually rpcbind then ypbind is not OK. For instance, syslogd, mountd also use NIS. So you have to restart a lot of services in case of NIS failure. A statistic: the same installation rebooted 6 times was OK 4 times, fail 2 times... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1558196 Title: ypbind not able to socket activate rpcbind under systemd, fails at boot unless something else starts rpcbind To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1558196/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
