Windows Services for Unix 3.5

[Paul Crossman]

Nothing special.  Just make sure that ypbind is started on the Linux
box.

Hi Paul

	Thanks for your answer, you are right I, it is Windows 2003 not
win3k, anyway the NIS  server is in the same net, I can ping the server
from the Linux machine but it can not see NIS, any special service that
I need to start in the linux side?

Thanks again

David

Is the windows box on a different network and are you broadcasting for
the NIS server on the Linux box?

If you are, it will never work.  If your NIS server is on a different
subnet (i.e. outside the netmask), you'll never see it via a NIS
broadcast.  If you haven't, try specifying the windows box explicitly
and see if that works.

BTW, how did you get Win3k 995 some odd years early?  How slow does it
run on this primitive technology?  :)  Sorry...  Couldn't resist and I
could have gone on for pages and pages with this.  :)

Hi All,    

 

            I have installed Windows services for Unix in My Windows 3k
server and I want it to serve as a NIS  server but when I try  to point
the Linux machine to use the windows NIS server it said it can not
contact the server, I have check the configuration in windows and
everything seems to be fine and all the processes are running so I don't
know if I am missing something in the Linux side. Does anybody know what
needs to be done to make this work?

 

Thanks

 

David
