This is version 1.0 of a collection of NIS(YP) client tools. It was
part of nis-tools 1.x and is now a separate package.

See the file Copyright for copying restrictions.

The YP tools are a special port from the FreeBSD sources for the 
GNU libc 2.x library, since ypbind 2.2, 2.99beta and the most tools 
from yp-clients 2.2 will not work with the glibc YP code. They will
also work with Linux libc 5.4.36 or greater. You should use ypbind 3.3 
from Swen Thuemmler for both, glibc 2.x and libc 5.x.

Don't forget to edit /etc/nsswitch.conf, or install the version
from the etc directory for NIS.
