Hi, folks!
I'm running 4.2-STABLE and have a question.

I have two machines, one (castle) is my mail server that has shell, ftp and
mail, and another (arachne) that has the webserver. I want to run NIS to
distribute the password files between the two.

Castle would NIS master, and arachne would be NIS slave.

I've done the setup as per the handbook.

My first question is... do i have to enable castle and arachne to be both
master and slave in rc.conf?

ie..

#castle rc.conf
nisdomainname="dreaming"
nis_server_enable="YES"
nis_yppasswdd_enable="YES"
nis_client_flags="-Sdreaming,castle"
nfs_client_enable="YES"

#arachne rc.conf
nisdomainname="dreaming"
nis_server_enable="YES"
nis_client_enable="YES"
nis_yppasswdd_enable="YES"
nis_client_flags="-Sdreaming,arachne"

and, my second question is this the right format for castle's
/var/yp/ypservers ?

castle.dreaming.org castle.dreaming.org
arachne.dreaming.org arachne.dreaming.org

Any help or advice will be appreciated.

Regards,
Mit
