[illumos-Developer] NIS server

[Igor Kozhukhov]

I tried configure NIS server.

I have found that package was renamed to service/network/nis:

root at srv249:/var/yp# pkg contents -r -m
pkg://opensolaris.org/SUNWyp@0.5.11,5.11-0.133:20100216T103151Z
set name=pkg.fmri 
value=pkg://opensolaris.org/SUNWyp@0.5.11,5.11-0.133:20100216T103151Z
set name=org.opensolaris.consolidation value=osnet
set name=pkg.renamed value=true
set name=variant.opensolaris.zone value=global value=nonglobal
set name=variant.arch value=sparc value=i386
depend fmri=consolidation/osnet/osnet-incorporation type=require
depend fmri=service/network/nis at 0.5.11-0.133 type=require

I don't know why installed service didn't work without workaround?

root at srv249:/var/yp# pkg info service/network/nis
