Greets... Added a server last night, and when we ran our daily rdist, we got "Permission Denied" from that host. I can't figure out *why*... In the process of trying to figure this out, I have: (1) Enabled *every* r-service in inetd.conf (2) Put world-write and read on every file and directory in the box (no, I don't plan to leave it this way :) (3) Made sure that RDIST was running as root (4) Pulled out lots and lots of hairs.... :( To top it off: this guy doesn't "get" NIS. I get the proper responses from ypwhich, ycat passwd, domainname, etc., ypbind *is* running, but it won't login anyone not in the local passwd file! (Yes, /etc/host.conf has NIS enabled)... These two have just got to be related... And I'm sure I'm missing something really simple, but... J.A.
