I'm wondering if this is just an isolated case or if it :does warrant a FAQ entry or LINT or something. : :Thanks! : :Doug White | University of Oregon :Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant :http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major hmmm... it may be obsolete now with the new sound drivers, I don't know. It probably warrants a LINT comment (the comment can always be removed later). I don't have a sound card installed in my PPro at the moment so I can't really test to see if it is still a problem. -Matt Matthew Dillon Engineering, HiWay Technologies, Inc. & BEST Internet Communications (Please include original email in any response) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Tue Aug 18 18:53:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA23709 for freebsd-doc-outgoing; Tue, 18 Aug 1998 18:53:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns2.netroplex.com (ns2.netroplex.com [206.171.95.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA23679; Tue, 18 Aug 1998 18:53:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from philipb@netroplex.com) Received: from 1 (max007-06.netroplex.com [207.212.27.134]) by ns2.netroplex.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id SAA29737; Tue, 18 Aug 1998 18:32:43 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 18 Aug 1998 18:32:43 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199808190132.SAA29737@ns2.netroplex.com> To: "Music Industry" <> From: "Scarlett Taylor" Subject: Hot New Singer/Songwriter...

The section below could be added (after spell checking and man-ification) just before the NOTES section or as the first entry in the NOTES section. >How-To-Repeat: man ypserv >Fix: INSTALLATION Master Server Create a directory , like 'foo.bar' in the directory specified as the path, normally /var/yp. Specify in the 'all' rule in the Makefile in /var/yp the files you want to be handled by ypserv. Perform a 'make' to see which files it cannot yet find. Create these files in the directory 'foo.bar' and type make again to see which other files it misses. Create a file securenets as described below. Then start the ypserver up with the command 'ypserv'. Set the domainname with 'domainname foo.bar'. You should now be able to bind to this domain by executing the command 'ypbind -S foo.bar,'. To see the server you are bound to use the command ypwhich. Do a make again in the directory /var/yp to push the files to the local NIS server. Slave server Create a directory '/var/yp/' and copy by hand the files from the same directory on the master server. This is necessary to get the initial maps there. Start the NIS server with the command 'ypserv'. Add the name of the slave server to the list of NIS servers in the file /var/yp/ypservers and do a make in the directory /var/yp on the master server. This should produce an updated version of the database in the /var/yp/foo.bar directory on the slave. ...
