ypwhich is a target utility.
The ypwhich command returns the name of the NIS server which supplies the NIS name services to an NIS client, or one which is the master for a map. If invoked without arguments, it returns the NIS server for the local machine. If hostname is specified, that machine is queried to find out which NIS master it is using.
Use this domain (instead of the default domain).
This option inhibits map nickname translation.
Find the master NIS server for a map. No hostname can be specified when using -m. The mname parameter can be a mapname or a nickname for a map. When mname is omitted, a list of all available maps is produced.
Display the map nickname translation table.
