The same happens with telnet. I assume that you are running NIS. If so, you must set the "B" flag in /var/yp/Makefile to -b. Then remake NIS. Also you must change in rc.local the ypserv call to ypserv -i (do this in all of your NIS servers)... I had this same frustrating problem with 4.0.1. This is documented somewhere in the System & Network Administration number. Ivan Auger ivan@stat.ph.albany.edu
