From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020607 Description of problem: I selected NIS authentication during the installation, but after the install, the nsswitch file only contained files nisplus, not files nis nisplus. Also, the nisdomain was not set, even though I specified to broadcast for the server in the domain I told it to use for nis during the installation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Choose NIS during install (broadcast server) 2.view /etc/nsswitch.conf after install 3.type 'nisdomainname' Actual Results: <snip> passwd: files nisplus shadow: files nisplus group: files nisplus <snip> # nisdomainname <blank> Expected Results: passwd: files nis nisplus shadow: files nis nisplus group: files nis nisplus # nisdomainname mynis.domain Additional info:
I could not reproduce this behaviour you describe in a graphical install where I specified: - use NIS for authetication - use a NIS domain of 'my.nis.domain' - use broadcast The files all appeared to be setup correctly. Could you give us some more detailed instructions on how to reproduce this issue? And was this a text or graphical based install?
It was a graphical installation. I will have to pay attention on my next installation to see if this happens again.
Any luck?
