NIS client configuration


Network Information System (NIS) is a system which allows some sharing of configuration information across a network. Generally this includes user accounts and passwords, and host names. To set this option, you need to know your NIS domain name and optionally the name of a NIS server. This package does not support the configuration of a server...yet!
