Our lab is moving out of the dark ages into the confused ages! Our Suns are slowly migrating over to YP (or is it now NIP) and we are beginning to eye the NeXTs. Is there a good reference on converting NeXTs from netinfo to YP? Is it nasty? Is there someone out there we could have as a background reference during the conversion? Pre-Thanks Mark

Basically all you have to do is add a '+' entry to all of the database you want to rely upon yp for and then use the NetManager app to assign a ypdomain and then reboot. See the network admin book and the online docs about netinfo that should have come with your NeXT.
