Using Solaris 7 as an Install Server

If you use Solaris 7 as an install server, you need to modify the Solaris 7 /etc/nsswitch.conf file before you run add_install_client.

1. Go to this line in the Solaris 7 /etc/nsswitch.conf file:

   hosts: xfn nis [NOTFOUND=return] files

2. Remove the xfn entry so that the line looks like this:

   hosts: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files

3. Run add_install_client from the Solaris 7 3/99 CD.
