Part of my frustration with getting NIS up and running again seems to have stemmed from config files not being written by YaST. For example, my NIS server has a new IP address now, but despite all the times I entered its new address in the NIS client setups, /etc/yp.conf had the old address in it. And I could open the list of hosts in YaST, and remove two old addresses for that server, close and "save," then reopen it and they would be there again. I was amazed that something kept putting back old address entries, until I finally figured out that YaST wasn't changing them. Once I edited that file manually, pinging the various machines started working right. Anyone else seen this happen with 11.1? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
