[klug] Setting up NIS

[Darryl Alison]

I can try and help I have set up NIS and NFS but that was using SuSe I had
no problems getting it to work.

Sharing if you are using NIS use NFS usless you want to share to a windows
environment then you will need samba.

Subject: [klug] Setting up NIS


I've just about got the "test boxes" ready for an install of NIS setup.
It's a new install of Fedora Core 4 on all clients, undecided whether to
settle on another FC4 (to keep them the same) or as suggested Clark
Connect (but a school setup surely can't use the "home" edition?).

...Have printed out a couple of versions of the NIS - LDP "howto".
Unsuire of all the ins and outs at this stage and may want help on how I
go abnout making the /home dirs reallocated, and also on setting up a
couple of common shared directories for all users as well.

Anyone think they would be able to help out if / where I get stuck?

Oh well - here goes... about to run lastminute /yum/up2date/synaptic etc
and then get to base system cloning. Hope it works...

Lance.
