36 * This protocol definition file describes a file transfer
37 * system used to very quickly move NIS maps from one host to
38 * another. This is similar to what Sun does with their ypxfrd
39 * protocol, but it must be stressed that this protocol is _NOT_
40 * compatible with Sun's. There are a couple of reasons for this:
42 * 1) Sun's protocol is proprietary. The protocol definition is
43 * not freely available in any of the SunRPC source distributions,
44 * even though the NIS v2 protocol is.
46 * 2) The idea here is to transfer entire raw files rather than
47 * sending just the records. Sun uses ndbm for its NIS map files,
48 * while FreeBSD uses Berkeley DB. Both are hash databases, but the
49 * formats are incompatible, making it impossible for them to
50 * use each others' files. Even if FreeBSD adopted ndbm for its
51 * database format, FreeBSD/i386 is a little-endian OS and
52 * SunOS/SPARC is big-endian; ndbm is byte-order sensitive and
53 * not very smart about it, which means an attempt to read a
54 * database on a little-endian box that was created on a big-endian
55 * box (or vice-versa) can cause the ndbm code to eat itself.
56 * Luckily, Berkeley DB is able to deal with this situation in
57 * a more graceful manner.
59 * While the protocol is incompatible, the idea is the same: we just open
60 * up a TCP pipe to the client and transfer the raw map database
61 * from the master server to the slave. This is many times faster than
62 * the standard yppush/ypxfr transfer method since it saves us from
63 * having to recreate the map databases via the DB library each time.
64 * For example: creating a passwd database with 30,000 entries with yp_mkdb
65 * can take a couple of minutes, but to just copy the file takes only a few
