[comp.sys.hp] Using YP w/ only PW map?

jsd@esl.ESL.COM (Jeff Dalton) (03/06/90)

I've got Yellow Pages to work correctly for all the standards maps, but 
now I wanted to only use it for the passwd map.  I modified the netnfsrc,
ypinit, and ypmake files to remove referances to the other maps (except
ypservers) and ran ypinit again on all the servers (master and slave) so
that only the passwd and ypservers maps are in the "yp domain directory".
All ypbind have been killed and restarted.

This problem is that the applications still look for YP maps which don't
exist (ie. hosts and services).

Has this happened to you?  What did you do about?

The HP responce has been to remove YP from the network.  

Environment: HP 9000/360s running 6.5 and 7.0 
General comment about HP: We've found that we can order (and have 
  delivered) HP workstations running 7.0 before HP can send us updated
  documentation and media for our existing system.  Different HPs?
