- In a few weeks I have to move our communications server from a
- HP9000/835 HP-UX8.0 to a SPARCserver 4/490 with SunOS4.1.1 (eventually
- 4.1.2).
- As I read the comp.sys.sun.* groups regurarly, I remember that there
- was once a problem running NIS server and DNS server concurrently on a
- sun. Setting up a sun DNS client is a cake (just 'make' in /var/yp
- with the -b switch activated in the Makefile, and creating
- /etc/resolv.conf). However, I believe I read once something about
- patching some binaries, if DNS and NIS should run together...
- Anybody knows more?
-
- I also move others from the HP to the Sun:
-
- - mailhub (sendmail configuration)
- - NNTP
- - CNEWS (at the moment I'm running cnews27Aug91 on the HP. Are there
- any advantages if upgrading to a newer version?)
- - NN (6.4.16)
-
- Does anybody know if I have to expect problems?
-
- Thanks in advance
-
- Daniel
