Extend Checks to NIS+ Tables: YPCHECK

The YPCHECK environment variable specifies whether ASET should also check system configuration file tables. YPCHECK is a Boolean variable; you can specify only true or false for it. The default value is false, which disables NIS+ table checking.

To understand how this environment variable works, consider its effect on the passwd file. When set to false, ASET checks the local passwd file. When set to true, the task also checks the NIS+ passwd file for the domain of the system.

Although ASET automatically repairs the local tables, it only reports potential problems in the NIS+ tables. ASET does not change them.
