Has anyone had any success in getting things like telnet, ftp, rlogin, and so forth to work with the nameserver under SunOS 3.4? I've tried taking 4.2BSD source and compiling it on the suns with the resolver library, but it just doesn't seem to work. -sam

The YP server will then use the named(8) to resolve any unknown request. Your client will not use named(8) directly, but via the YP server. Good Luck.
