Reassigning to a more appropriate component, this issue has nothing to do with RHN. While browsing through the system files I found a dhclient lease file that showed the NIS domain name in lower case. Indeed our DHCP server returned that option. After changing the DHCP configuration NIS domain option to upper case the problem vanished. I suppose RedHat 8.0 takes the NIS domain name from DHCP whereas the previous versions we use (6.2 and 7.1) take the name typed in during installation. RedHat 8.0 installation still asks for the NIS domain although DHCP is used. So I didn't find out the changes directly ... |
