- _y_p_i_n_i_t sets up network information service (NIS) on a system. It can be
- used to set up a client or a master or slave server. You must be the
- superuser to run it. It asks a few self-explanatory questions, and
- reports success or failure to the terminal.
-
- It sets up a master server using the simple model in which that server is
- master to all maps in the data base. This is the way to bootstrap the
- NIS system; later if you want, you can change the association of maps to
- masters. All databases are built from scratch, either from information
- available to the program at runtime, or from the ASCII data base files in
- /_e_t_c. The location may be overridden using the ----ffff argument. These files
- are listed below under FFFFIIIILLLLEEEESSSS. All such files should be in their
- "traditional" form, rather than the abbreviated form used on client
- machines.
-
- An NIS database on a slave server is set up by copying an existing
- database from a running server. The _m_a_s_t_e_r__n_a_m_e argument should be the
- hostname of the NIS master server.
-
- Refer to _y_p_f_i_l_e_s(4) and _y_p_s_e_r_v(1M) for an overview of NIS.
