The current version of the yp-tools is: 2.10

The yp-tools package contains the programs domainname, nisdomainname, ypcat, ypchfn, ypchsh, ypdomainname, ypmatch, yppoll, ypset, ypwhich and yppasswd. yp-tools 2.x is a complete rewrite of the yp-tools 1.x. It should replace the old yp-clients 2.x and yp-tools 1.x. Read the yp-tools NEWS and ChangeLog file for more information.

The yp-tools 2 package compiles and works on Linux with libc 4.5.21 and better, every libc5 version and glibx 2.x (libc6). I haven't tested it under other Systems. libc 5.4.21-5.4.34 are known to be broken. Don't use them !

Download: Something from the TODO list:
  • ypwhich should support ypbind protocol version 3, but I don't know that protocol.
  • Need translations for other languages then german, english and swedish.
