Bug ID: 1358429
           Summary: Adjustments for glibc split NSS packages
           Product: Fedora Documentation
           Version: devel
         Component: system-administrator's-guide
          Assignee: [e-mail]

        Depends On: 1338889

In Fedora 25, the NIS NSS modules have been moved to the nss_nis package.  The
System Administrator's Guide needs to be updated to mention that both ypbind
and nss_nis packages need to be installed in order to enable NIS support.

Hello Florian

I am struggling to find where this change should be made.

Could you take a look at the section [1] and give me some advice please.

Thank you

Looks like I reported this bug against an older version of the guide which
still had a chapter “Configuring Authentication”.  There was some discussion of
ypbind in it.  I don't know why it is gone from the current version.  The need
for configuring authentication doesn't really go away with newer Fedora
versions.
