Hey,

I'm getting ready to setup a NIS server for a LAN, and
I'd really like to use FreeBSD again.  However, the
last time I did this with FreeBSD (4.6, so not that
long ago), I couldn't get the server to build a map
for the home dirs.  I tried an awk script in the
Makefile that I saw online, but that didn't help.  It
seemed like it just wouldn't build the map.  The only
way I could get it to work was to create an amd.home
with all of the users in it and put it on all of the
client machines... This was too ugly.

Can anyone help?

TIA,

Eric
