Yes, that is already OK. Here is the /etc/svc.conf file:


aliases=local,yp
group=local,yp
hosts=local,bind,yp
netgroup=local,yp
networks=local,yp
passwd=local,yp
protocols=local,yp
rpc=local,yp
services=local,yp

SECLEVEL=BSD   # for backwards compatibility ONLY

Who needs this file anyway ? I mean I can figure out its meaning, but who
reads this file ?

Ionut

PS glibc is version 2.2 . Are there any known issues about this ?
