See \fBypbind\fR(1M). \fBypset\fR -tells \fBypbind\fR to get NIS services for the specified \fIypdomain\fR from -the \fBypserv\fR process running on \fIserver\fR. If \fIserver\fR is down, or -is not running \fBypserv\fR, this might not be discovered until an NIS client -process tries to obtain a binding for the domain. At this point, the binding -set by \fBypset\fR is tested by \fBypbind\fR. If the binding is invalid, -\fBypbind\fR attempts to rebind for the same domain. -.sp -.LP -\fBypset\fR is useful for binding a client node that is not on a broadcast net, -or is on a broadcast net that is not running an NIS server host. It is also -useful for debugging NIS client applications, for instance, where an NIS map -exists only at a single NIS server host. -.sp -.LP -Where several hosts on the local net are supplying NIS services, \fBypbind\fR -can rebind to another host, even while you attempt to find out if the -\fBypset\fR operation succeeded. For example, if you enter the \fBypset\fR -command below, you might get the subsequent response from \fBypwhich\fR: -.sp -.in +2 -.nf -example% ypset host1 -example% ypwhich -host2 -.fi -.in -2 -.sp - -.sp -.LP -The sequence shown above is a function of the NIS subsystem's attempt to -load-balance among the available NIS servers, and occurs when \fBhost1\fR does -not respond to \fBypbind\fR because it is not running \fBypserv\fR (or is -overloaded), and \fBhost2\fR, running \fBypserv\fR, obtains the binding. -.sp -.LP -\fIserver\fR indicates which NIS server to bind to, and must be specified as a -name or an IP address. This works only if the node has a current valid binding -for the domain in question and \fBypbind\fR has been set to allow use of -\fBypset\fR. In most cases, \fIserver\fR should be specified as an IP address. -.sp -.LP -\fBypset\fR tries to bind over a connectionless transport. The NIS library -call, \fByp_all()\fR, uses connection-oriented transport and derives the NIS -server's address based on the connectionless address supplied by \fBypset\fR. -.sp -.LP -Refer to \fBypfiles\fR(4) for an overview of the NIS name service. -.SH OPTIONS -.sp -.ne 2 -.na -\fB\fB-d\fR\fI ypdomain\fR\fR -.ad -.RS 15n -Use \fIypdomain\fR, instead of the default domain. -.RE - -.sp -.ne 2 -.na -\fB\fB-h\fR\fI host\fR\fR -.ad -.RS 15n -Set \fBypbind\fR's binding on \fIhost\fR, instead of locally.
