Summary: NIS (or YP) client programs. Name: yp-tools Version: 2.6 Release: 4 License: GPL Group: System Environment/Base Source: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/NIS/yp-tools-%{version}.tar.bz2 Url: http://www-vt.uni-paderborn.de/~kukuk/linux/nis.html Patch1: yp-tools-2.6-passwd.patch Obsoletes: yppasswd, yp-clients Requires: ypbind Buildroot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-root %description The Network Information Service (NIS) is a system which provides network information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information) to all of the machines on a network. NIS can enable users to login on any machine on the network, as long as the machine has the NIS client programs running and the user's password is recorded in the NIS passwd database. NIS was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP). This package's NIS implementation is based on FreeBSD's YP and is a special port for glibc 2.x and libc versions 5.4.21 and later. This package only provides the NIS client programs. In order to use the clients, you'll need to already have an NIS server running on your network. An NIS server is provided in the ypserv package. Install the yp-tools package if you need NIS client programs for machines on your network. You will also need to install the ypbind package on every machine running NIS client programs. If you need an NIS server, you'll need to install the ypserv package on one machine on the network. %prep %setup -q %patch1 -p1 %build %configure --disable-domainname make %install rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT make DESTDIR="$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" install %find_lang %name %clean rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT %files -f %{name}.lang %defattr(-,root,root) %doc AUTHORS COPYING README ChangeLog NEWS etc/nsswitch.conf %doc THANKS TODO /usr/bin/* %{_mandir}/*/* /usr/sbin/* /var/yp/nicknames %dir /var/yp %changelog * Mon Mar 25 2002 Alex Larsson 2.6-4 - Updated passwd patch with Nalins comments * Fri Mar 22 2002 Alex Larsson 2.6-3 - Add patch that handles MD5 passwords and HPU/X password aging. - This should hopefully fix #19045 and #22667 * Wed Jan 09 2002 Tim Powers - automated rebuild * Tue Jul 24 2001 Florian La Roche - own /var/yp * Sun Jun 24 2001 Elliot Lee - Bump release + rebuild. * Mon Feb 26 2001 Trond Eivind Glomsrød - langify * Wed Sep 27 2000 Florian La Roche - add another security patch * Sun Aug 20 2000 Florian La Roche - allow passwords up to 128 characters * Tue Aug 15 2000 Nalin Dahyabhai - change License from GNU to GPL - fix handling of defaults in ypchfn (#13830) * Thu Jul 13 2000 Prospector - automatic rebuild * Sun Jun 18 2000 Matt Wilson - use %%{_mandir} * Thu Feb 03 2000 Cristian Gafton - man pages are compressed - version 2.4 * Tue Oct 26 1999 Bill Nottingham - get rid of bogus messages. * Fri Aug 27 1999 Preston Brown - patched /var/yp/nicknames so that hosts resolves to hosts.byname, - not hosts.byaddr (bug # 2389) * Sun May 30 1999 Jeff Johnson - update to 2.3. * Fri Apr 16 1999 Cristian Gafton - version 2.2 - make it obsolete older yp-clients package * Sun Mar 21 1999 Cristian Gafton - auto rebuild in the new build environment (release 3) * Thu Dec 17 1998 Cristian Gafton - build for glibc 2/1 - version 2.1 - require ypbind * Fri Jun 12 1998 Aron Griffis - upgraded to 2.0 * Thu May 07 1998 Prospector System - translations modified for de, fr, tr * Mon Apr 13 1998 Cristian Gafton - upgraded to 1.4.1 * Thu Dec 04 1997 Cristian Gafton - put yppasswd again in the package, 'cause it is the right thing to do (sorry djb!) - obsoletes old, unmaintained yppasswd package * Sat Nov 01 1997 Donnie Barnes - removed yppasswd from this package. * Fri Oct 31 1997 Donnie Barnes - pulled from contrib into distribution (got fresh sources).
