- And what about RISC/os 5.0 ? Is it possible to use a nameserver for host
- name lookup, and NIS for the mail aliases database ? I bet this would be
- done by linking sendmail to sendmail.nis, while putting
- hosts: files dns
- in the vis.conf file. And does one still need to link sendmail prior to
- building the NIS maps with ypinit ?

- Thanks !
