Details

An updated ypbind package is now available.

The Network Information Service (NIS) is a system that provides network
information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information)
to all of the machines on a network. NIS can allow users to log in on any
machine on the network, as long as the machine has the NIS client programs
running and the user's password is recorded in the NIS passwd database. NIS
was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP).

This update allows ypbind to log all disconnects from the yp server.

All users of ypbind should upgrade to this updated package, which resolves
this issue.
