[OpenIndiana-discuss] rpc/bind service manifest

[real-men-dont-click at gmx.net]

Hello everybody,

we spend some time last night to bring up the NIS service on an OI 151a7 installation. We had severe difficulties to connect the slave servers and ended up snooping the interface....

To make a long story short, the service is configured to only listen locally (strange for a RemoteProcedureCall service, isn't it)

The solution was to adjust the service manifest of network/rpc/bind accordingly:

change

<propval name='local_only' type='boolean' value='true'/>

to

<propval name='local_only' type='boolean' value='false'/>


Perhaps the default setting should be changed.....
