YPPUSH(8)               OpenBSD System Manager's Manual              YPPUSH(8)

NAME

     yppush - force distribution of one YP map

SYNOPSIS

     yppush [-v] [-d domainname] [-h hostname] mapname

DESCRIPTION

     The yppush utility distributes one YP map from the master server to all
     slave servers in the domain.  All servers of the domain are fetched from
     the YP map ypservers.  Before starting distribution, the master server is
     told to reread its db(3) map files from disk.

     The options are as follows:

     -d domainname
             Don't use the default domain, use the specified domain.

     -h hostname
             Distribute the map only to one host and not to the hosts in the
             ypservers map.

     -v      Verbose.  Announce what the program is doing.

BUGS

     The map is also pushed from the master server to itself, which has no
     effect other than slowing down operation.
