I found an error in the manpage for yppasswd. I'm using RELENG_4. From the manpage: -s host Specify the name of an NIS server. This option, in conjunction with the -d option, can be used to change an NIS password on a non- local NIS server. When a domain is specified with the -d option and passwd is unable to determine the name of the NIS master server (possibly because the local domainname isn't set), the name of the NIS master is assumed to be "localhost". This can be overidden with the -s flag. The specified hostname need not be the name of an NIS master: the name of the NIS master for a given map can be determined by querying any NIS server (master or slave) in a do- main, so specifying the name of a slave server will work equally well. This should be -h, not -s: usage: passwd [-l] [-y] [-o] [-d domain [-h host]] [user] Also, "overridden" is misspelled. I'm not subscribed to this list, so if you must reply, please contact me directly.
