Problem in communication nim client with nim master
Hello, I have an AIX6.1 machine which is a nim client to my nim master which is also AIX6.1 machine. I had some problem to perform an installation on my client using
Code:
 smit nim

. i removed /etc/niminfo file in order to do the initialization again but when i run the command
Code:
 niminit -a name=client -a master=master -a connect=nimsh

i get the following error message: "0042-006 niminit: (init to master) rcmd A remote host refused an attempted connect operation." any idea what could be the problem? Thank you

forget about the previous post. i find the problem. it was the nimesis daemon that wasnt active on my NIM master. i run the command
Code:
 lssrc -g nim

and i get the result: Subsystem Group PID Status nimesis nim inoperative i started the subsystem
Code:
 startsrc -g nim

and now the problem is solved

ypwhich

YPWHICH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						YPWHICH(1)

NAME

     ypwhich -- return hostname of YP server of map master

SYNOPSIS

     ypwhich [-d domain] [[-t] -m [mname] | host]
     ypwhich -x

DESCRIPTION

     The ypwhich utility tells which YP server supplies YP services to a client, or which is the master for a map.  If invoked without arguments,
     it gives the YP server for the local machine.  If host is specified, that machine is queried to find out which YP server it is using.

     The options are as follows:

     -d domain
	     Specify a domain other than the default domain.

     -t      Inhibit translation of map nicknames to their corresponding map names.

     -m [mname]
	     Find the master YP server for the named map.  No host may be specified with the -m option.  The mname argument can be a map name or
	     nickname.	If mname is omitted, ypwhich will produce a list of available maps.

     -x      Display the map nickname table.
