This is a first attempt at an YP (NIS version 2) Server.

It is part of the NYS Project. See the file COPYING for copying
restrictions. It is available under the GNU General Public License.

Databases should be stored in /var/yp/<domainname>/. Use the "dbload"
program to create/fill "map" databases with entries. 

The file "ypMakefile" should be  installed in /var/yp/<domainname>,
"dbload" and "mknetid" in /usr/lib/yp. Then do "cd /var/yp; make".

Start the YP Server with "ypserv" (or "ypserv -debug /foo/bar"
to run in debug mode using the database directory /foo/bar).

There is a mailing list for NYS developement where I announce new
version of the NYS YP Server and the NYS NSL Library. Send email
to: info-nys-request@lysator.liu.se and ask to be added. The mailing
list itself is at: info-nys@lysator.liu.se.
