Many enviroments are switching from the Network Information Service (NIS) system over to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) for sharing their network information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information) to all of the machines on the network. NIS was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP).

This package implements several utilites that provide functional equivalents to utilities from the yp-tools and util-linux-ng package.

Features

  • Provides LDAP replacement for ypcat
  • Provides LDAP replacement for ypmatch
  • Provides LDAP replacement for ypchsh
