[wplug] ypserv/nis stops

[John Harrold]

Sometime in January Edmond Fafard assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| Hi 
| 
| I found your problem description of ypserv stopping and was wondering what
| you did to fix it. I tried to follow the link you posted 
| to bugzilla but it says it does not exist anymore , 

i looked through the archives and it seems as though the id in the url was
3d98531, when it should have been 98531. anyway, this is the url for the
bug:


https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98531


to cut to the chase. i put the following in my crontab:

*   *    *   *   *  { ypwhich ; ypwhich || /sbin/service ypserv restart | mail -s "Restarted ypserv" root;} > /tmp/ypcron.log 2>&

there was also a suggestion that the following might be used: 

http://people.redhat.com/steved/ypserv/2.8-4/rh9/

i hope this helps you out.
