[SunHELP] solaris 8 problem ....

[Adrian Florea]

So, if I want to ping another station and I have ethernet down - I have to
stop ypbind first ? that means that every time I want to check a station
with ping from a script, I need to stop ypbind first -- I'll try to see
what is the thing that makes ypbind block the station, because stoping and
starting ypbind every time it seems not a very good choice to me...

Thanks,
Adrian.
