Chapter 7, Configuring the Network Information Service (NIS)
Initializing a master server
The following steps explain how to initialize a master NIS server:
-
Log in as root and
shut the system down by using the
System Shutdown Manager
as described in the
SCO OpenServer Handbook.
You see messages as the system services stop. Press <Enter> at the
Safe to Power Offmessage.
-
The following prompt appears:
Type <Ctrl>D to proceed with normal startup, (or give root password for system maintenance)
- Type the root password, then press <Enter>.
-
Enter either of the following commands at your operating system prompt:
mkdev nisor
/etc/yp/ypinitThe functionality and the options for ypinit and mkdev nis are identical.
-
NIS prompts you to choose the host type:
You must specify whether this host is to be a master, slave server, copy-only server or NIS client. Please enter the server type:[mscCq]
Enter m to indicate that the local host is to be the NIS master server. If you want to stop the initialization, enter q.
-
If you attempt to configure a master or slave server on a host
in Secure Mode (that is, at High or Improved security default),
you see the following message:
ypinit: ERROR: Invalid configuration.
The security settings of this system are incompatible with the NIS configuration requested. Please refer to your Release and Installation Notes for further details. Initialization Aborted.
Refer to ``NIS interaction with security modes'' for security restrictions.
-
If NIS has been previously initialized on your system, you see
the following:
NIS has been initialized previously on this machine Please verify that you would like to re-initialize NIS Do you wish to re-initialize NIS? (y/n/q)
Enter y to continue. -
You then see:
The local host's domain name hasn't been set. Please set it. Please enter the domain name or q to quit:
Enter the NIS domain name; you need an NIS domain name to retrieve data from an NIS database.You will be asked:
Is "domainname" correct? [y/n/q]
Enter y if correct. If you enter n, you will be asked to reenter the domain name. If you enter q, NIS initialization aborts.You see this prompt:
Installing the NIS database will require that you answer a few questions. Questions will all be asked at the beginning of the procedure.
-
If an NIS database already exists on your machine, you see:
Can we destroy the existing /etc/yp/<domainname> and its contents? [y/n/q: n]
If you see this message, enter y to continue, which tells NIS to rebuild the previous NIS database with current information.If you enter the default n or q, NIS initialization aborts, and you must manually remove the old NIS databases.
-
If the /etc/passwd.local file does not exist on the machine,
you see the following message:
NIS stores local logins in /etc/passwd.local, which currently doesn't exist on this machine. The /etc/passwd.local file must be created before continuing.
Enter y to continue. See ``About managing users'' for details on these files.Is it okay to copy /etc/passwd to /etc/passwd.local? [y/n/q: n]
If you enter the default n, you must manually create the /etc/passwd.local file, then start the initialization procedure again.
-
If the /etc/group.local file does not exist on your machine,
you see:
NIS stores local groups in /etc/group.local, which currently doesn't exist on this machine. The /etc/group.local file must be created before continuing.
Enter y to continue. See ``About managing users'' for details on these files.Is it okay to copy /etc/group to /etc/group.local? [y/n/q: n]
If you enter the default n, you must manually create the /etc/group.local file, then start the initialization procedure again.
-
Next, verify that the YP_MAP_X_LATE
file contains correct information.
You see:
The YP_MAP_X_LATE file contains the following: list of mapnames
If the list is not correct, enter the default n. Edit YP_MAP_X_LATE to contain the correct entries, and start the initialization procedure again. Refer to the ypmapxlate(NF) manual page for more information.Is this correct? [y/n/q: n]
If the list is correct, enter y to continue.
-
You see the following prompt:
The NIS network password file resides in /etc/passwd.yp on master servers only. Since this node is being set up as a master server, /etc/passwd.yp must be created.
Enter y to continue.Is it okay to create /etc/passwd.yp? [y/n/q: n]
If you enter n, you must manually create the /etc/passwd.yp file, then start the initialization procedure again.
-
You see the following prompt:
The NIS network password file resides in /etc/group.yp on master servers only. Since this node is being set up as a master server, /etc/group.yp must be created.
Enter y to continue.Is it okay to copy /etc/group to /etc/group.yp? [y/n/q: n]
If you enter n, you must manually create the /etc/group.yp file, then start the initialization procedure again.
-
You then see:
You must specify whether ypbind is to be run with the secure option (-s), the ypset option (-ypset), allowing anyone to change your binding, or the ypsetme option (-ypsetme) which only allows requests with host-name's IP address to change host-name's binding, or with no options. Please see ypserv(NADM) for more information 1) ypbind -s 2) ypbind -ypset 3) ypbind -ypsetme 4) ypbind Please enter your choice (1-4,q):
Enter the response appropriate to your security concerns:- Option 1
- Recommended for most heterogeneous environments, where other versions of NIS are also in use.
- Option 2
- Recommended when the server is on a different subnet and you want others to be able to change your bindings.
- Option 3
- Recommended when the server is on a different subnet and only requests with host-name's IP address should be able to change your bindings.
- Option 4
- Recommended in an SCO NIS environment where the server is on the same subnet.
For further information, consult the ypserv(NADM) manual page, which includes information about ypbind. See also ypset(NADM).
-
You then see:
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts that will be running NIS (NIS server hosts). The local host is in this list of NIS server hosts. Please continue to add the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the list, type a <Ctrl>D.
Enter all of the master and slave server names, including all server machines running other operating systems. The machine name and the Internet Protocol (IP) domain name are acceptable host names; the NIS domain name is not. Press <Enter> after each host name. After entering the last host name, press <Ctrl>D to continue, and enter y to verify that the host names are correct. NIS then creates and updates the maps. -
You then see:
Should administration accounts such as "root" be distributed? [y/n/q: n]
Enter n to prevent administration accounts from being distributed, unless there is strong reason to do so. See ``Administering NIS users and groups'' for more information.
NOTE: When you initialize NIS, all of the UNIX system files that have the same names as NIS files are backed up in parallel subdirectories under /usr/lib/nisrt. When you initialize the NIS server, NIS changes some system files. For example, NIS saves the system file /bin/passwd to /usr/lib/nisrt/bin/passwd and then replaces /bin/passwd with a link to the file /etc/yppasswd.When the initialization procedure is complete, you see a series of messages resembling the following display:
There will be no further questions. The remainder of the procedure should take 5 to 10 minutes.
-
If NIS has been previously initialized on your system, you
see:
The backup directory /usr/lib/nisrt already exists
Enter y to continue; NIS then backs up system passwd files. If you enter n or q, NIS installation aborts.Do you wish to continue with the SCO NIS Runtime System Initialization?
You then see a series of messages similar to:
Backing up system passwd files . . .
This display of updated maps should correspond to the maps listed in /etc/yp/YP_MAP_X_LATE.Building /etc/yp/domain_name/ypservers . . .
Running /etc/yp/ypmake . . .
<list of updated files>
host_name has been set up as a NIS master server without any errors.
Your master server is now initialized.
-
You will see:
If there are running slave servers, run yppush now for any data bases that have been changed. If there are no running slaves, run ypinit on those hosts that are to be slave servers.
See the reference manual pages for yppush(NADM) and ypinit(NADM) if you have questions about these procedures. -
Shut the system down and reboot it by using the
System Shutdown Manager
as described in the
SCO OpenServer Handbook.
Remember to select Reboot after shutdown when using the manager.
The first time an NIS slave server enters multiuser mode after NIS has been initialized on the slave server, its startup script calls ypxfr to transfer maps from the master server. Subsequent system startups do not transfer maps automatically.
