Re: NIS server over IPv6

I think, the underlying RPC portmapper needs to be "ipv6-aware". Whether
this is supported in FreeBSD? Do you think no other configuration changes
needed for NIS server / client running natively over IPv6 network?

Thanks!

I'm clueless in getting information about NIS server over IPv6
configuration and availability in any Unix flavors including *BSDs,
Solaris
or Linux distros.

Except from configuring IPv6 and host resolving correctly, I don't think
there's anything different with respect to NIS. It's all based on host and
domainnames, so if a domain has one or more hosts with only IPv6 address,
then it'll use IPv6.
