Solaris Common Messages and Troubleshooting Guide

no such map in server's domain

Cause

A user or an application tried to look up something using Network Information Services (NIS), but NIS has no corresponding database for this request.

Action

Make sure the NIS map name is spelled correctly. To see a list of nicknames for the various NIS maps, run the ypcat -x command. To see a full list of the various NIS maps (databases), run the ypwhich -m command. If the NIS service were not running on the current machine, these commands would result in a "can't communicate with ypbind" message.
