NAME
       ypserv_resolv - DNS forwarding service daemon for NIS

SYNOPSIS
       ypserv_resolv [-v | -V] [-F [-C fd]] [-t xx] [-p yy]


DESCRIPTION
       ypserv_resolv is an auxiliary process that provides DNS forwarding ser-
       vice for NIS hosts requests to ypserv that is running in the  NIS  com-
       patibility  mode.  It  is generally started by invoking ypserv(1M) with
       the -d option. Although it is not recommended, ypserv_resolv  can  also
       be started independently with the options shown below.


       This  command requires that the /etc/resolv.conf file be setup for com-
       munication with a DNS nameserver. The dig(1M) utility can  be  used  to
       verify  communication  with  a  DNS  nameserver. See resolv.conf(4) and
       dig(1M).

OPTIONS
       -F       Run in foreground.


       -C fd    Use fd for service xprt.


       -v       Verbose. Send output to the syslog daemon.


       -V       Verbose. Send output to stdout.


       -t xx    Use transport xx.


       -p yy    Use transient program# yy.
