- OK here is the scenario, I have 3 sparcstations running sunos 4.1.1
- an ELC an IPC, and an IPX. The ELC is the NIS domain master server.
- I have rebuilt the shared c-lib with the resolv+-2.1 routines
- and edited the Makefile in /var/yp on the NIS master server, un-commented
- the B=-b line and done a make. I have configured /etc/host.conf and
- /etc/resolve.conf on all the machines - all per the instructions in the FAQ.
- Domain name resolving works fine on the NIS master - but not at all on the
- clients, please somebody give me a clue. I am a NIS/YP neophyte and I do not
- have access to the full SunOS documentation (something I am working on
- correcting). Any constructive comments (except RTFM for obvious reasons)
- gratefully received.

- -Thanks Alastair.
