Extending NIS configuration

Folks

We have 2 DecAlpha 2100's running DU3.2c with
NIS and enhanced security enabled.

One is a NIS master (M) the other a NIS slave (S).

I want to add in a new alpha (C) as a client.

The manuals dont make it clear exactly how
you deal with expanding the configuration in this way.

What is the process to make this happen?

Do I firstly run nissetup on the new machine, C, to make
it a client?

How do I let the master M and slave S know
about the client? What do I have to do on each machine?

Has anybody done this?

Thanks
Paddy
