This machine has = been a dialup machine up until about 2 months ago when I got a = cablemodem. with the dialup I used alias, with the cablemodem I am = using natd to allow the internal machines to connect outside. Problem = is, now I cannot get ypbind to bind to the server itself. I am running = the server so that Linux and Solaris (2.7) can use the NIS passwords. =20 Running tcpdump on the network interface it appears that there are = alot of packets from something (random source ports) to the network = broadcast address on the rpcsvc port. This only occurs when ypbind is = running. What makes it even more strange is the fact that both Linux and = Solaris connect to the server fine, not one problem. But the server cannot connect to itself. Machine: P-120 OS: FreeBSD 3.2-stable (compiled about a month ago right after the = release) NIC: DEC 21140 based Kingston and NE2000 compliant SMC card Video: Piece of crap 512kb ISA (it does text and only text :) This is a basic stripped down machine with only what it needs to = function. natd, Kernel, and firewall created as per FAQ. everything else works = like a champ.
