How to Change Incorrect Information

If you typed n because some or all of the information returned to you was wrong in Step 4 in the above procedure, you will see the following:

Is this information correct? (type 'y' to accept, 'n' to change)
 n
Domain name: [doc.com.]

1. Press Return if the domain name is correct; otherwise, type the correct domain name and press Return.

   In this example, Return was pressed, confirming that the desired domain name is doc.com.. The script then prompts for the NIS+ group name.

   Is this information correct? (type 'y' to accept, 'n' to change) n Domain name: [doc.com.] NIS+ group: [admin.doc.com.]

2. Press Return if NIS+ group is correct; otherwise, type the correct NIS+ group name and press Return.

   In this example, the name was changed. The script then prompts for NIS compatibility.

   NIS+ group: [admin.doc.com.] netadmin.doc.com. NIS (YP) compatibility (0=off, 1=on): [0]

3. Press Return if you do not want NIS compatibility; otherwise, type 1 and press Return.

   In this example, Return was pressed, confirming that NIS compatibility status is correct. Once again, the script asks you if the information is correct.

   Note –

   If you choose to make this server NIS compatible, you also need to edit a file and restart the rpc.nisd daemon before it will work. See Configuring a Client as an NIS+ Server for more information.

   NIS (YP) compatibility (0=off, 1=on): [0] Domain name : doc.com. NIS+ group : netadmin.doc.com. NIS (YP) compatibility : OFF Security level : 2=DES Is this information correct? (type 'y' to accept, 'n' to change)

   When the information is correct, continue with Step 3 in How to Create a Root Master Server. You can keep choosing -n until the information is correct.
