- You have to delete the old slave server from the ypservers map.
-
- On the master server, create a text file from the map:
- /usr/etc/yp/makedbm -u /var/yp/`domainname`/ypservers >ypservers.txt
- Delete the first two lines, and the line for the old slave.
- Turn the new text file into a map:
- /usr/etc/yp/makedbm ypservers.txt /var/yp/`domainname`/ypservers
- Use
- cd /var/yp ; make
- to push the map to all servers.
