Created attachment 556512 [details] Patch to fix the problem Description of problem: Even if you enable NetworkManager-wait-online.service, the console/gdm/kdm login screen can appear before ypbind has started. This means that a NIS user will not be able to login. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ypbind-1.33-9.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Configure system for NIS, DHCP, NetworkManager-wait-online.service enabled 2.Boot the system 3.When the login screen comes up, immediately try to login as a NIS user Actual results: Login fails Expected results: Login works Additional info:
The patch contains the suggestion discussed on #systemd on IRC, and has been tested on a Fedora 16 laptop.
Reproducibility, results etc. clearly depend on your DHCP server/network to be slow to come up.
Thanks for the report and the patch, I'll apply it soon.
