How to Regularly Administer NIS+


Depending on the updates one performs in the namespace, it is a good
idea to frequently perform nisping -C so that log files gets written
to the disk. You may wish to put this into a cron tab on your
root-master server, to make sure that it is executed daily.

Another important NIS+ administration task is to regularly backup
/var/nis, to make sure that you can recover in the case of a massive
failure.
