rpc.nisd, nisd — NIS+ Service Daemon
Synopsis
/usr/sbin/rpc.nisd [-ACDFhv][-Y [-B [-t netid]]][-d dictionary] [-L load][-S level]
Description
The rpc.nisd daemon is an RPC service that implements the NIS+ service. This daemon must be running on all systems that serve a portion of the NIS+ namespace.
rpc.nisd is usually started from the /etc/rc2.d/S71rpc run control script at system startup.
The -B option starts an auxiliary process, rpc.nisd_resolv, that provides ypserv compatible DNS forwarding for NIS host requests. You can also start rpc.nisd_resolv independently. See rpc.nisd_resolv(1M) for more information on using rpc.nisd_resolv independently.
