NAME
      yppoll - return current version of a NIS map at a NIS server
      host
 


SYNOPSIS
      /usr/sbin/yppoll [ -d ypdomain ]  [ -h host ]  mapname
 


DESCRIPTION
      The yppoll command asks a ypserv() process  what  the  order
      number  is,  and which host is the master NIS server for the
      named map.
 


OPTIONS
      -d ypdomain
            Use ypdomain instead of the default domain.
 
      -h host
            Ask the ypserv process at host about the  map  parame-
            ters. If host is not specified, the NIS server for the
            local host is used. That is, the default host  is  the
            one returned by ypwhich(1).
