Thanks to all who replied. Most people were recommending the same setup. I
will try your suggestion and will also invest in the book Managing NFS and
NIS from O'Reilly, which was recommended by so many of you

Thanks again

Hi gurus,

My NIS server died yesterday and caused total chaos. My plan now is to
have
two NIS servers on the network, Sol2.6, master / slave. Will the slave
take
over if the master goes down? Is there anything special I have to do for
this configuration? I inherited this network so I am not very
knowledgeable
on NIS. All help will be greatly appreciated.
