We got rid of NIS and dont use it at all now. Even the directories have
been moved to .old. We also recompiled sendmail without NIS support.
However we get the following error attached to virtually every mail in the
mail.log
NOQUEUE: SYSERR (root) : Switch map aliases : Unkown member map
aliases.nis
or the above plus : Operation not permitted.
This does not stop the mail being handled but often appears on messages
that the mail recipient sees so we would dearly like to stop the error.
Anybody any idea how to fool the system into forgetting about aliases.nis
please?
