nis
Installing the new glibc and the new nis packages hasn't fixed (unfortunately)
the ybind problem.
Here are the bheaviour.
If i've clients and the server on the same subnet and i run ypbind on
clients with -broadcast option, everything works perfectly.
If my server is on a different subnet i must specify the server name
throught the ypserver directive in /etc/yp.conf on my clients. In this case
the ypbind fail to do the binding with the server (even if it pings
correctly).
It's a debian-sparc problem (nis or glibc i don't know) since i've tried the
same configuration with a pc (debian-slink) and in this case it works.
Here are version numbers:
Server
ii nis 3.3.1-1 Clients and daemons for the Network Informat
ii libc6 2.0.7.19981211 GNU C Library: shared libraries
Sparc Client (with kernel 2.2.9)
ii nis 3.3.2-1 Clients and daemons for the Network Informat
ii libc6 2.1.1-5.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and timezone
Any idea ?

Cristian Prevedello
