In trying to rebuild the am-utils package to support NIS maps, I keep getting this situation -- happens each time I try it :-( [...] gcc -shared -Wl,-soname -Wl,libamu.so.1 -o .libs/libamu.so.1.0.1 misc_rpc.lo mount_fs.lo mtab.lo nfs_prot_xdr.lo util.lo wire.lo xdr_func.lo xutil.lo transputil.lo mtabutil.lo mountutil.lo umount_fs.lo collect2: ld terminated with signal 6 [Aborted] make[2]: *** [libamu.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/am-utils-6.0a16/libamu' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/am-utils-6.0a16' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 I'm building this from the SRPM, and I actually haven't done any modifications to it yet -- it's just the am-utils-6.0a16-1.src.rpm from ftp.linux.sgi.com. (built with 'rpm -bc am-utils.spec'). Oddly enough, it doesn't appear that NIS support was detected in the am-utils configure script (although the machine was bound to a domain at the time). I won't spam the entire build log to the list, but I have it if anyone has any leads on this and could benefit from it. I don't know how related this is, but while ypmatch-type calls work OK, ypcat generally returns errors like this: green:~$ ypcat group eegrad:*:4000:test eeugrad:*:6000: faculty:*:2000: staff:*:10:azam,harper,marchany,sysacct,clepple eestaff:*:3000:azam,harper,marchany,sysacct yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Program not registered [above repeats 3 to 5 times, then terminates with...] No such map group.byname. Reason: RPC failure on NIS operation Sorry to bug you all about this -- I know that NIS probably isn't high on everyone's priority list...
