NAME
      fnsypd - update FNS context on an NIS master server
 


SYNOPSIS
      /usr/sbin/fnsypd
 


DESCRIPTION
      The  fnsypd daemon is a Remote Procedure Call (RPC)  service
      that accepts requests from  NIS clients to update and modify
      Federated Naming Service (FNS) contexts.  This  daemon  runs
      on  an   NIS  master  server   with   FNS on top of it.  The
      fnsypd daemon requires the Secure Key Infrastructure   (SKI)
      mechanism  for  authentication. The SKI mechanism is part of
      the SUNWski package. If SUNWski is not installed,  authenti-
      cation  cannot  be performed and users will receive "permis-
      sion denied" error messages.  The   SUNWski  man  pages  are
      located at /opt/SUNWski/man.
 
      fnsypd enables users and hosts to  modify only their respec-
      tive   FNS  contexts. Organization, site, hostname and user-
      name contexts cannot be modified using fnsypd.
 
 EXIT STATUS
      The following exit values are returned:
