11.2. Updating NIS maps

If you modify the sources for the NIS maps (for example if you create a new user by adding the account to the passwd file), you need to regenerate the NIS maps. This is done by a simple

This command will check which sources have changed, creates the maps new and tell ypserv that the maps have changed.
