# # ypserv.conf In this file you can set certain options for the NIS server, # and you can deny or restrict access to certain maps based # on the originating host. # # See ypserv.conf(5) for a description of the syntax. # # Some options for ypserv. This things are all not needed, if # you have a Linux net. # Should we do DNS lookups for hosts not found in the hosts table ? # This option is ignored in the moment. dns: no # How many map file handles should be cached ? files: 30 # Should we register ypserv with SLP ? slp: no # After how many seconds we should re-register ypserv with SLP ? slp_timeout: 3600 # xfr requests are only allowed from ports < 1024 xfr_check_port: yes # The following, when uncommented, will give you shadow like passwords. # Note that it will not work if you have slave NIS servers in your # network that do not run the same server as you. # Host : Domain : Map : Security # # * : * : passwd.byname : port # * : * : passwd.byuid : port # Not everybody should see the shadow passwords, not secure, since # under MSDOG everbody is root and can access ports < 1024 !!! * : * : shadow.byname : port * : * : passwd.adjunct.byname : port # If you comment out the next rule, ypserv and rpc.ypxfrd will # look for YP_SECURE and YP_AUTHDES in the maps.
