sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10, system SunOS 5.7
Note that I have also several linux system on intel. They all run nis
without any problem. One system has also been just upgraded to the
latest potato too.
By the way, I think I have nade an error by trying to install the

instead ? (this is a Sparc IPC)
