and YP_SECURE flags so that it can properly add them to newly created
maps when needed. This applies only when using the 'standard' method
for map transfers. When using rpc.ypxfrd, the whole map is copied
verbatim, along with any special entries that may be encoded in it.
Also made -Wall a little quieter for ypxfrd_getmap.c.
Also generallize the yp_dbwrite functions a little: allow the caller
to specify certain flags. I need this mostly for some changes to
rpc.yppasswdd to allow in-place updates.
Also change Makefile a little to use the same format as ypserv.
- Handle 'empty' maps more gracefully. By empty I mean a valid map that
just happens not to have any entries in it, such as you would get if
you built a map database from an empty file. Previously, trying to
ypxfr such a map would yield an 'NIS map/database error' which is not
the correct behavior.
ypxfr_misc:
- Make sure to free() or xdr_free() dynamically allocated memory in
ypxfr_get_master() as necessary.
to the old one, except that it supports an additional option (-p path)
that lets you specify the top level path wiere your NIS maps live.
(ypserv allows you to specify a path like this, so it makes sense that
ypxfr should too. ypserv will automagically pass the -p flag to ypxfr
if you use a path other than /var/yp when you start it.)
This program uses client stub code generated by rpcgen as well as
the yp_dblookup.c module from ypserv.
