Configuring NIS or NIS+

To browse NIS or NIS+ maps, you must configure either NIS or NIS+ as your Solstice naming service. Configure the naming service by entering the domain and IP address of your NIS or NIS+ server, following the directions in "To Configure NIS or NIS+".

To see the host name of your NIS server, use the following command on a Solaris system:

ypwhich 	

To see the IP address of your NIS server, use the following command:

ypcat hosts | grep hostname

To see the domain name and IP address of your NIS+ server, use the following command:

niscat -o org_dir
