I get these annoying yp client call timeouts on my desktop at work. Doing some googling, I find that I should enable nscd to cache the lookups. That sounds like a good idea, but I'm just curious how the devil it actually works. If my yp.conf file points to some remote NIS server, how does the nscd cache insinuate its way into the middle of the NIS lookups? Is talking to nscd built into the glibc code so that it will use the cache if it is there, and talk to the remote server otherwise? Just curious. I've enabled it, now I'll see if the yp errors stop... More curiosity: My mailer claims I sent this yesterday, but it hasn't shown up in the archives or my copy of the users list, so I'm trying it again. Anyone have any idea where the original might have gone? (Maybe I used the wrong sender addr?). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
