Subject: [gentoo-user] Ybind problems - doesn't like YP server

1 We have a Solaris based YP server.
2
3 On a fresh install I set /etc/yp.conf to:
4 domain insignia broadcast
5
6 and set NISDOMAIN to "insignia" in /etc/conf.d/domainname.
7
8 If I run "ypbind -debug" I get:
9
10 >speyburn ~ # ypbind -debug
11 >parsing config file
12 >Trying entry: domain insignia broadcast
13 >parsed domain 'insignia' broadcast
14 >add_server() domain: insignia, broadcast
15 >[Welcome to ypbind-mt, version 1.17.2]
16 >
17 >do_broadcast() for domain 'insignia' is called
18 >Answer for domain 'insignia' from server 'panther.internal.local'
19 >leave do_broadcast() for domain 'insignia'
20 >Pinging all active server.
21 >Pinging all active server.

23 The YP server is correctly identified. I can ping it OK
24 in another window. However if I do a ypwhich in another
25 window I get:
26
27 >speyburn ~ # ypwhich
28 >can't yp_bind: Reason: Domain not bound
29
30 It doesn't make any difference if I use the "-broken-server"
31 flag.
32
33 This was working fine on the machine which failed and I'm
34 in the process of replacing, and I'm pretty sure I didn't
35 do any more than the above.
