NAME
     ypwhich - return name of NIS server or map master

SYNOPSIS
     ypwhich [-d domain] [ [-t] -m  [mname] | [-Vn] hostname]

     ypwhich -x

DESCRIPTION
     ypwhich returns the name of the NIS server that supplies the
     NIS  name  services  to a NIS client, or which is the master
     for a map. If invoked without arguments, it  gives  the  NIS
     server  for  the  local  machine.  If hostname is specified,
     that machine is queried to find out which NIS master  it  is
     using.

     Refer to ypfiles(4) for an overview of the   NIS  name  ser-
     vices.

     -d domain       Use domain instead of the default domain.



     -t              This option inhibits map  nickname  transla-
                     tion.



     -m mname        Find the master NIS server for  a  map.   No
                     hostname can be specified with -m. mname can
                     be a mapname, or a nickname for a map.  When
                     mname  is  omitted, produce a list of avail-
                     able maps.
