ypset
tells the
ypbind(8) process on the
current machine which YP server process to communicate with. If
server is down or is not running a YP server process,
it is not discovered until a YP client process attempts to access a YP map,
at which time ypbind(8) tests
the binding and takes appropriate action.
ypset
is most useful for binding a YP
client that is not on the same broadcast network as the closest YP server,
but can also be used for debugging a local network's YP configuration,
testing specific YP client programs, or binding to a specific server when
there are many servers on the local network supplying YP maps.
The options are as follows:
-d
domain-h
hostdomainname(1), ypcat(1), ypmatch(1), ypwhich(1), yp(8), ypbind(8), yppoll(8)
