- We ran into ypbind security problem where one of our NIS server was trying
- to fetch NIS map from bogus NIS server. I guess this is a know risk,
- but I thought there would be better protection against that. I wonder
- if anyone came across such problem, and how you went about solving the
- problem. If you have any suggestion, I would like to hear it from you.
-
- Thanks
