To: questions@FreeBSD.org Date: Thu, 23 Feb 1995 06:22:47 -0800 (PST) Reply-To: bmk@dtr.com X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Length: 394 Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I want to use a FreeBSD 2.0-SNAP-950210 machine as a YP (NIS) server. I've never set up a NIS server before, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I've read all of the FreeBSD and Sun NIS man pages, and have a good idea on how to proceed. The only problem that I am facing is that I don't have a clue what should go in the /var/yp/Makefile. Does anyone have a sample that they can provide?
