Advanced NIS administration

Adding the new Server to the domain

To add a new slave server to the domain, perform the following procedure:

  1. Log in to the master server as NIS administrator.

  2. Edit /var/yp/binding/domainname/ypservers and add the new slave server's name to the list of servers.

  3. Enter:

    cd /var/yp
    ./ypbuild ypservers

    The ypbuild command will update the ypservers map and propagate it to any slave servers.
