Hi,

I have both linux and solaris NIS client against a Solaris NIS Server, but my linux box are shamefully slow compare to solaris some sample:

on Solaris 5.8:

# ypwhich transporter02.domain.com # time id userid uid=36923(userid) gid=36923(u_036923)

real 0.0 user 0.0 sys 0.0

on Linux:

[root@linux]# ypwhich transporter02.domain.com [root@amsdc2-n-s04taw root]# time id userid uid=36923(userid) gid=36923(u_036923) groups=36923(u_036923)

real 0m10.509s user 0m0.030s sys 0m0.090s

Do you have nscd running on the Linux box? Enabling it will allow caching of lookups to passwd, group and hosts.
