Description Jonathan Miner 2001-12-11 16:15:02 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-12smp i686)

Description of problem:
We have laptops running RH7.1 which are part of our YP network.  When the
machines boot up away from the network, the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind script
fails to kill ypbind.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot the laptop away from the network
2. ps -ef | grep yp

	

Actual Results:  ypbind is still running and generating domain not bound
messages, even though the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind tries to execute a "kill"
command after the binding fails.

Expected Results:  ypbind should not be running.

Additional info:

My fix is to replace "kill $pid" with "stop" in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind
script (line 58)
