[Sunhelp] NIS

[Fuerst, Robert C. (Chris)]

gold:/#sys-unconfig
Warning - this will unconfig - blah blah - continue - yes
sys-unconfig: failue :cannot open logfile
gold:/# 
	
	Seems like there should be some way to get to this disk.

	When I go to the format menu - repair
	Enter absolute block number of defect: 
	Should this be the 3435552 that I get from the error on startup?
	Requested block = 3435552?

	Thanks

	stop-a
	boot -s

	Once logged on in single user mode do a `sys-unconfig`, this will 
	unconfigure the current system network settings (i.e IP address,
name 
	resolution, etc.). When you reboot it will prompt you to enter this 
	information.

	Hi,

	I have a machine running NIS (so i just found out!!)
	and I changed its IP address over to our  new range of IPs.
	I did this for a variety of machine running solaris 2.6
	and then went on to do the final machine, this one running
	SUNOS 4.1.3. I hadn't realized it was running NIS as
	it is not my machine (and there is no need for NIS here anyway).
	When I rebooted after changing the Ip the machine hung at:

	Services: ypbind
	RPC keyserver
	NIS: server not responding for domain "phys.unsw.edu.au"; Still
trying
	NIS: server not responding for domain "phys.unsw.edu.au"; Still
trying
	NIS: server not responding for domain "phys.unsw.edu.au"; Still
trying

	etc

	How can I get the mchine to boot so I can try and debug what is
wrong?
	(by looking at files)

	Many thanks,

	Melinda
