Install solaris 10 NIS pb

Hello gurus,

I've got some problems in the installation process with solaris 10.

The first thing that i modified is the add_install_client script. The name
of every computer at my office begins with a capital letter, as Lidl for
exemple. In the NIS map, there are some upper and lower first caracter, as
follow :
#ypmatch Lidl hosts
Can't match key Lidl in map hosts.byname. Reason: no such key in map.
#ypmatch lidl hosts
193.xx.xx.xxx Lidl
There are some ypmatch in the add_install_client, so i made things to
match the name correctly (on a NIS client, i had to modify
rm_install_client).

Here are the problems :
* When the boot server is the NIS server, everything is Ok, the NIS server
is corrcetly identified.
* When the boot server is not the NIS server, i got an error in the
installation process, which is : "The name server enterded is incorrect".

That made me think that i should do something else when the boot server is
not the NIS server. However, i have no idea of what that could be.

Any help would be appreciate,

Yann
