Has anyone else experienced ypbind just stopping on FC1?
We've got a mixed network of RH9 and FC1 machines. The NIS server is currently running on RH9, and ypbind running on FC1 can connect to the RH9 machine to authenticate. However, occasionally we've noticed that the ypbind service on FC1 will simply stop. A grep through the logs doesn't show anything unusual (grep -i bind /var/log/messages*) and a status query on the ypbind service (service ypbind status) reports "ypbind dead but pid file exists". Once ypbind is restarted (service ypbind restart), users can use the machine again.
kernel: 2.4.22-1.2199.nptlsmp ypbind: 1.12-3
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour? Any idea what may be causing this, or where to start looking for clues? Could it be an issue at the NIS end?
