System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services (NIS+)

Updating IP Addresses in NIS+

If you change a server's IP address, or add additional addresses, you need to run nisupdkeys to update NIS+ address information.

To update the IP addresses of one or more servers, use the nisupdkeys command -a option.

To update the IP addresses of servers of a given domain


rootmaster# nisupdkeys -a domain

To update the IP address of a particular server


rootmaster# nisupdkeys -a -H server
