After upgrading to rawhide, ypbind binds fail at ypbind service start, and remote users can no longer log in. On the nis server, I get these logged errors: Feb 2 14:15:28 server2 ypserv[2312]: refused connect from 192.168.0.89:56329 to procedure ypproc_match (nisavtech,shadow.byname;-1) Downgrading to the F10 ypbind rpm fixes the problem. Has something changed in ypbind rawhide that affect nis shadow files? My nsswitch.conf file is below. - Mike passwd: files nis shadow: files nis group: files nis hosts: files nis dns bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files ethers: files netmasks: files networks: files protocols: files rpc: files services: files netgroup: files nis publickey: nisplus automount: files nis aliases: files nisplus
More info - the F10 nis server has this ypserv.conf: dns: no files: 30 xfr_check_port: yes * : * : shadow.byname : port * : * : passwd.adjunct.byname : port
Hi, Thanks for report. Your configuration files are OK. As I investigated it right now, I bet you don't use NetworkManager. There's fix of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480096 in Rawhide and it seems breaking ypbind functionality without NM. I'll look at it...
As you say, I don't use NetworkManager. I have reverted back to F10, because rawhide created more problems than it solved for me. So I can't provide much more feedback... - Mike

There's workaround - you should use "-no-dbus" option and binding works fine.
Creating the file /etc/sysconfig/ypbind containing the line OTHER_YPBIND_OPTS="-no-dbus" and doing a "service ypbind restart" works around the problem I was seeing with ypbind-1.20.4-13.fc11.i386 , and yes, I don't use NetworkManager.
Just to confirm comment #6. I am not using NetworkManager either, and using the " -no-dbus" fixes my problems.
So what's the expected resolution in F11? "-no-dbus" on every client? - Mike
