Description Wesly Chen 2007-06-21 02:16:16 UTC

Description of problem:
Config the NIS domain and server via "system-config-authentication", it updates 
the /etc/yp.conf file. But it does NOT put "NISDOMAIN=xxx" 
in /etc/sysconfig/network. So when I run "service ypbind start" or reboot the 
machine, ypbind doesn't run unless I type "domainname xxx".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
authconfig-gtk-5.3.12-2.el5.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run /usr/sbin/system-config-authentication
2. check "Enable NIS Support" and click on "Configure NIS..."
3. Fill in "NIS Domain" and "NIS Server"
4. Click "OK" and "OK"

Actual results:
ypbind start successfully. But /etc/sysconfig/network is not updated 
with "NISDOMAIN=xxx"

Expected results:
/etc/sysconfig/network need to be updated with "NISDOMAIN=xxx". Otherwise, the 
ypbind won't start after reboot due to NIS domain is not set.
