I think we can say that my YP implimentation has gone through a fair
amount of testing.
Anyone who wants to play with it can get it from
ref.tfs.com:/usr/home/deraadt/src/yp/v10.patch (PREFERRED!)
(or) fsa.ca:/pub/v10.patch (SLOW)
(or) send me mail and i will mail it to you.
These patches are relative to a fairly 386BSD/NET2 OS. The format is
as one monster 4000 line diff, just run Larry Wall's patch and clean
up any messes it does afterwards. Sorry -- the installation of this
has not been tested since I only have one machine. There are (minimal)
instructions for how to install it; they are included below. (I would
really appreciate some feedback from people who play with this.)
In my setup (sun3/sunos4.1.1 yp server) it works very well. There is
one lingering bug that causes an error message to be spat out about
once a day (_yp_dobind: socket 4 is busted!Bad file descriptor) and
I'm trying to track that. Something is robbing me of a udp socket..
Looking forwards to comments and experiences.

DO THIS BEFORE
Ensure you have the domainname patches installed
Ensure you have the real crypt(3) installed
mkdir /usr/include/rpcsvc
mkdir /usr/src/lib/libc/yp
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp/ypcat
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp/ypmatch
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp/yppasswd
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp/ypset
mkdir /usr/src/usr.sbin/yp/ypwhich
cd /usr/lib; ln -s librpc.a librpcsvc.a
cd /usr/src/lib/libc; mkdir rpc; cd rpc; cp ../../librpc/rpc/* .
rm /usr/src/lib/libc/rpc/Makefile
At this point, you want to look at the patches below..
DO THIS AFTER
cd /usr/src/lib/librpc; make; make install
cd /usr/src/lib/libc; make; make install
cd /usr/src; foreach i ( bin usr.bin sbin usr.sbin libexec )
(cd $i; make -k; make -k install )
