Re: NIS (was: Netinfo, NFS and general server question)

Hannes,

You sent this only to me, I think you meant to send it to the whole OSX-Server list, so I'm cc'ing them in this reply.

Hi there,

is there only people out there that try to get their NIS-Client on an OSX working, but no one ever solved it?


I'm currently doing this now and have given up the ghost on netInfo in OSX.1 NIS works, I need to stop trying to fix things that are not broken. I'm just gonna use my NIS setup till I can get 10.2 Server and Client and just not deal with the pain. Plus I just got handed 7 SGI O2's which already are doing NIS, so there's now some additional legacy issues I need to deal with.

My Xserve just turned a SNAP Server. Wheeee. Can ya' tell I'm excited ;) Oh.. sorry tangent there for a moment. Next I'll be telling you all about my dogs..

Anyway...
The following URL will tell you *everything* you need to know about setting up NIS on OSX
http://bresink.de/osx/nis.html
Read it in careful detail and follow every step.

The Author of the above guide has even made a handy utility for enabling NIS client activities

- Migrate NIS Directory Services from linux to Netinfo on OSX Server

I want to get 10 OSX Clients to _work_ in a NIS-environment. NFS is no problem (well, at least compared to the rest) but the authentification doesn't work at all - although the YP-contact is available and ypbind kind of works...


Sounds like you didn't enable the YP agent in lookupd. See above URL's and the answers will become clear.
Anybody solved it?!?

Anybody who didn't solve it and wants to get in contact with me to get it right in half the time???

I just don't want to have Authentification Servers for each OS - I just want our Linux- Machine to do all the LOGIN- stuff.

That's just how "far" i got...
