.Dd October 25, 1994 .Dt YPSET 8 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm ypset .Nd tell .Xr ypbind 8 which YP server process to use .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm ypset .Op Fl h Ar host .Op Fl d Ar domain .Ar server .Sh DESCRIPTION .Nm Ypset tells the .Xr ypbind 8 process on the current machine which YP server process to communicate with. If .Ar server is down or is not running a YP server process, it is not discovered until a YP client process attempts to access a YP map, at which time .Xr ypbind 8 tests the binding and takes appropriate action.
p .Nm Ypset is most useful for binding a YP client that is not on the same broadcast network as the closest YP server, but can also be used for debugging a local network's YP configuration, testing specific YP client programs, or binding to a specific server when there are many servers on the local network supplying YP maps.
p The options are as follows: l -tag -width indent t Fl h Ar host Set the YP binding on .Ar host instead of the local machine. t Fl d Ar domain Use the YP domain .Ar domain instead of the default domain as returned by .Xr domainname 1 . .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr domainname 1 , .Xr ypbind 8 , .Xr ypcat 1 , .Xr ypmatch 1 , .Xr yppoll 8 , .Xr ypwhich 1 , .Xr yp 8 .Sh AUTHOR Theo de Raadt
