ypxfr: call to rpc.ypxfrd failed: RPC: Timed out

Hi,



If seen a couple of complaints about the message below. I have found the issue in ypxfr function ypxfrd_get_map. The timeval struct is initialized with a timeout of 25 usec. Inside libc this will result in a poll timeout of 0, which will return immediately raising this error. My question is: what would be a sane value for this timeout. Somewhere else in ypxfr a timeout of 10 seconds is used, but I wonder if that would be too long before reverting back to the old transfer method without ypxfrd.



/usr/libexec/ypxfr −f passwd.byname

ypxfr: call to rpc.ypxfrd failed: RPC: Timed out

ypxfr: Exiting: Map successfully transferred
