Karl Heller) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: YP question with 2.1.5 Date: 18 Mar 1997 17:16:39 GMT Organization: CDnow - The World's Largest Online Music Store http://cdnow.com Lines: 13 Message-ID: <5gmiln$lhs@netaxs.com> Reply-To: heller@cdnow.com NNTP-Posting-Host: socko.cdnow.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:37398 I've got a 2.1.5 box that is running ypserv just fine. I have a Solaris 2.5.1 box that uses it as a yp server. If I do a "ypcat passwd" on Solaris or FreeBSD I get the correct output. If I do a "ypcat hosts" on FreeBSD I get the correct output. If I do a "ypcat hosts" on Solaris, the list is duplicated several times. I'm worried that something is broken and I'm not sure on what. I figure there is something wrong with the Solaris YP client or the FreeBSD server that messes up the list ( but why only hosts?? ). Also, does anybody have a YP makefile addition for adding the /etc/aliases file? Karl
