Dear Fellows ,

Hi,
I need Your Help , i m using win2000 dns server with ip 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.50( domain name is gost.com) , while my linux( red hat 9.0) client just connected to this network by entering a host entry in your nIcs like this mis.gost.com .

Mis.gost.com has been added to win2000 dns server.

now i want to setup a linux NIS serevr to authenticate and store data on server.

but i want to use linux nis serevr in the same network enviorment.

is it possible , if yes , then can you guide me a little bit.

Thanks in advance

waiting for your positive response

What do you want to use the Linux NIS server for? Do you want to authenticate Windows 2000 clients using the NIS server?

Hi
Thanks for reply , i just want to authenticate linux clients with NIS Server.

Is there any graphical tool for NIS Server Configuration.

Thanks

I don't know of any graphical utilities to set up NIS [unless you're using Fedora, which sort of helps you a little]. However, I do know that The Linux NIS HOWTO can be a very big help for you, if you don't know where to begin. I suggest looking into that and then posting a new thread here if you have more questions about that.
