Hi, I have just installed webmin for the first time and it is all working great. I was wondering how I would go about making webmin run a NIS push after adding a user to have the users available on our other machines? Thanks, Aaron Daniels |

If you are using the Users and Groups module, this can be done by clicking on Module Config and entering cd /var/yp ; make into the 'Command to run after making changes' field. Or you could use the NIS Client and Server module, which handles this kind of thing automatically .. - Jamie |

Thanks Jamie, I have the NIS module installed(I think) when I go into it under System -> NIS Client & Server. NIS server allows me to edit all my NIS configuration(/var/yp/Makefile) but NIS Tables and Server security say I am not running a NIS master and I have tried adding users but they are not automatically pushed by nis. any ideas?

Which linux distribution are you running? Webmin will say that if it detects that the init script that starts NIS on bootup (usually called something like ypserv or nis-server) is not enabled.. - Jamie Aaron Daniels wrote: > > Thanks Jamie, > I have the NIS module installed(I think) when I go into it under System -> NIS Client & Server. > NIS server allows me to edit all my NIS configuration(/var/yp/Makefile) but NIS Tables and Server > security say I am not running a NIS master > and I have tried adding users but they are not automatically pushed by nis. > any ideas? > > Aaron > > Jamie Cameron wrote: > > > > Aaron Daniels wrote: > > > > > > Hi, > > > I have just installed webmin for the first time and it is all working great. > > > I was wondering how I would go about making webmin run a NIS push after adding a user to have the > > > users available on our other machines? > > > > If you are using the Users and Groups module, this can be done by clicking on > > Module Config and entering cd /var/yp ; make into the 'Command to run after > > making changes' field. > > > > Or you could use the NIS Client and Server module, which handles this kind of > > thing automatically .. > > > > - Jamie |

Jamie, Running Debian 2.2 the init script is /etc/init.d/nis (start|stop|restart) Thanks again, Aaron Jamie Cameron wrote: > > Which linux distribution are you running?

AH .. that would be the problem them. Try editing nis/debian-linux-lib.pl and changing line 438 to if (!&check_on_boot("nis")) { - Jamie Aaron Daniels wrote: > > Jamie, > Running Debian 2.2 the init script is /etc/init.d/nis (start|stop|restart) > > Thanks again, > Aaron > > Jamie Cameron wrote: > > > > Which linux distribution are you running?
