I am trying to add a freebsd slave that will eventually become the master. I have transferred most of the maps and have ypserv running, but after updating the ypservers map I am not able to propagate it to the freebsd slave. Here's what I'm getting: On master: $ yppush ypservers Status received from ypxfr on xxxx: Failed - Transfer request refused. In /var/log/messages on xxxx, the freebsd slave: Sep 21 18:34:04 xxxx ypserv[4290]: access to ypservers denied -- client 111.222.333.444:2746 not privileged [I've obscured the hostname and ip address here, for insecurity reasons.] I've not found any clues in the man pages or the Lehey book. Before I go source-diving, does anyone happen to know the answer I'm looking for here? -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
