one ypbind broadcast can yield several responses. This can lead to some confusion: the syslog message from ypbind will indicate a rebinding to the first server that responds, but we may subsequently change our binding to another server when the other responses arrive. This results in ypbind reporting 'server OK' to one address and ypwhich reporting a binding to another. The behavior of the rpc_received() function has been changed to prevent this: subsequent responses received after a binding has already been established are ignored. Rebinding gratuitously each time we get a new response is silly anyway. Also backed out the non-fix I made in my last ypbind commit. (Pass me the extra large conical hat, please.) (At some point I'm going to seriously re-work ypbind and the _yp_dobind() library function to bring them in line with SunOS's documented behavior: binding requests are supposed to be 'client-driven.' The _yp_dobind() function should be responsible for retrying connections in response to calls from client programs rather than having ypbind broadcasting continously until a server responds. The current setup works okay in normal operation, but we broadcast far too often than we should.) |

----------------------------------------- FreeBSD 2.0 --- ALPHA Release , , ----------------------------------------- /( )` \ \___ / | Welcome to the ALPHA release of FreeBSD 2.0 - the /- _ `-/ ' first public snapshot of our new 4.4BSD Lite based (/\/ \ \ /\ operating system environment. This install proce- / / | ` \ dure is also at the ALPHA stage, and contains only O O ) / | the minimum functionality required by an `-^--'`< ' *EXPERIENCED* person to install the system. (_.) _ ) / It is our hope, of course, that the feedback `.___/` / provided from this snapshot will `-----' / greatly assist us in making the release <----. __ / __ \ of 2.0 much more user friendly. Your <----|====O)))==) \) /==== comments and criticisms are very <----' `--' `.__,' \ valuable to us, so please don't hesitate | | in contacting us! Full details on where and \ / /\ how to provide feedback are given below. ______( (_ / \______/ ,' ,-----' | This install procedure is ALPHA code, and `--{__________) may very possibly *DESTROY* the contents of your ENTIRE DISK! Please do not proceed with this installation unless you've adequately backed up your data first! If any errors occur during this installation, you can see them by toggling over to the alternate screen - type ALT-F2 to switch over, ALT-F1 to switch back to the install screen. The debugging output on the second screen may be very valuable to us in understanding your bug report, so please be sure to take note of it when reporting any failures in the installation! Thanks! Menus and scrolling output windows may be traversed with the arrow and Page Up/Page Down keys. To suspend the installation at any point, hit ESC twice. Hitting TAB will move the focus to different controls. If you've ever dealt with a DOS installation, you'll know how to deal with this. For a more complete description of what's new in this release, please see the release notes. For more documentation on this system, it is recommended that you purchase the 4.4BSD Document Set from O'Reilly Associates and the USENIX Association. ISBN 1-56592-082-1 We have no connection with O'Reilly, we're just satisfied customers! Have fun, and please let us know of any problems you encounter with this release! Comments should be sent to: hackers@FreeBSD.org Bug reports should be sent using the `send-pr' utility, if you were able to get the system installed, otherwise to: bugs@FreeBSD.org And general questions to: questions@FreeBSD.org Please have patience if your questions are not answered right away - this is an especially busy time for us, and our volunteer resources are often strained to the limit (if not somewhat past!). Thanks! The FreeBSD Project
