Description :
The Net::NIS interface comes in two parts. The first part is the raw
implementation of the NIS API. The second is the object interface,
described in the Net::NIS::Table manpage. This document describes the NIS
API implementation.
The NIS package implements all functions described in the the ypclnt(3N)
manpage manual page.
The following commands have been implemented:
* yp_bind($domain)
Bind the process to a NIS server for the domain $domain. This function is
rarely needed. See the yp_bind(3N) manpage.
* yp_unbind($domain)
Unbind the process from the specified $domain. This function is also
rarely required. See the yp_unbind(3N) manpage.
* $domain = yp_get_default_domain()
Return the host\'s local domain. (The same as the the domainname manpage
program). See the yp_get_default_domain(3N) manpage.
* ($status, $value) = yp_match($domain, $map, $key)
Return the $value for the given $key in the $map for the domain $domain.
The $key must be an exact match for an item in the map (_i.e._ yp_match
does no partial matching. The $value is only valid if $status is equal to
$YP_SUCCESS.
* ($status, $key, $value) = yp_first($domain, $map)
Return the first key-value pair from $map in $domain. As the NIS maps are
stored in a DBM table, the order of the returned values is not obvious.
* ($status, $key, $value) = yp_next($domain, $map, $key)
Return the next key-value pair from $map in $domain. The $key must be
provided from the previous the yp_first manpage or the yp_next manpage.
The the yp_first manpage/the yp_next manpage method is not recommended,
as under some circumstances, entries can be skipped or returned twice.
the yp_all manpage is a better interface to use.
* ($status, \\%values) = yp_all($domain, $map)
The the yp_all manpage call returns an entire map in the %values
associative array.
* ($status, $order) = yp_order($domain, $map)
This function returns the order number for $domain. Whatever that is. It
mustn\'t be very important, since it\'s not implemented on NIS+ servers
running in \"YP-compatibility mode\". I put it in for completeness.
* ($status, $name) = yp_master($domain, $map)
Returns the machine name of the master server for a map.
* $error = yperr_string($status)
Returns a string representation of the error code passed in $status.
* $status = ypprot_err($code)
Translates a NIS name service protocol error code to a ypclnt layer error
code. Only used for the C version of the yp_all manpage, and it is only
implemented here for completeness.
