hi
not sure if i got your question correctly.

setup one server as a master and the other server as a slave and the nis client will send a broad cast and will find a server to bind to.

Re: How to define 2 NIS servers

Hi,

1. I'm asking about HPUX11.22/HPUX11.00 .
2. I need a client configuration that supports 2 NIS servers (and NOT broadcat mode).

Thx, Lior./
