SYNOPSIS

rpc.nisd_resolv [-v| -V] [-F [-C   fd]] [-t   xx] [-p   yy]

DESCRIPTION

rpc.nisd_resolv is an auxiliary process which provides DNS forwarding service for NIS hosts requests to both ypserv and rpc.nisd that are running in the NIS compatibility mode. It is generally started by invoking rpc.nisd(1M) with the -B option or ypserv(1M) with the -d option. Although it is not recommended, rpc.nisd_resolv can also be started independently with the following options.

This command is not supported in the Trusted Solaris environment because ypserv and other NIS(YP) compatibility is unsupported.

-v
