Summary : The multi-thread NIS daemon which binds NIS clients to an NIS domain.
|
Description :
The Network Information Service (NIS) is a system which provides network information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information) to all of the machines on a network. NIS can enable users to login on any machine on the network, as long as the machine has the NIS client programs running and the user\'s password is recorded in the NIS passwd database. NIS was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP).
This package provides the ypbind daemon. The ypbind daemon binds NIS clients to an NIS domain. Ypbind must be running on any machines which are running NIS client programs.
Install the ypbind package on any machines which are running NIS client programs (included in the yp-tools package). If you need an NIS server, you\'ll also need to install the ypserv package to a machine on your network.
