Configuration Options

The four name service options (local, NIS, DNS server/client, and DNS client) work independently of each other.

• The local name service component enables you to add or delete hosts and their respective addresses (edit the local host table).

• The NIS component enables you to add/configure or delete the Netra server as an NIS client, NIS master server, or NIS slave server.

• The DNS server component enables you to set up a DNS server. The various options are described in detail below.

• The DNS client component enables you to configure the Netra server as a DNS client.
