Hey ho.....
We just received our 3rd Personal IRIS so I decided it was time to
turn on the Yellow Pages. I followed the easy-to-follow instruction without
much problem. However, one of our users immediately discovered that rlogin
no longer uses the named to resolve addresses. Instead it has reverted back
to the pre-named behaviour of using /etc/hosts, or rather, the yp hosts
database imported from the master yp server.
This is undesirable behaviour. How can I force rlogin to go back
to using the named? Are there any other nasty suprises in store for
me? I have looked at the manuals for info regarding rlogin/named/yp but
have found nothing relevant.
BTW: We are running IRIX 3.2.2 on 4D/20, 4D/25 and 4D/25.
Thanks in advance,
