NSF and NIS(eg. YP) are two separate things. You do not need to configure NIS for NSF. The main thing you need to be concerned with is that your user ids on both your systems are consistent. On 12 Apr 2000, at 8:12, Bill Moseley wrote:

I'm a bit confused. What's new. I bought a second computer and put SuSE6.4 on it yesterday. What I'd really like is a way to make the new computer just like the old one. But I'll settle for just using NSF to copy files over.
What I don't clearly understand is
1) is yp (NIS?) required, or is that only for unified login? That is, is NIS required for NFS?
2) if NIS is required, how do I determine who the server is? I'm unclear on how the settings differ for each (client and server) machine. I assume I can set up NIS all in yast.
