Thanks a lot for your prompt response, Robie! Before reporting this, I double-checked nis package in: - lucid (10.04LTS) - precise (12.04LTS) - quantal (12.10) - raring (13.04) - saucy (13.10) nis in all above versions have /etc/init.d/ folder.
Then I read the changelog of trusty, there is no such record about removing /etc/init.d/. This is a compatibility Issues. Users will feel very confused when they were not able to find /etc/init.d/nis. ** Changed in: nis (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1303717 Title: (trusty) missing /etc/init.d/ files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1303717/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
