+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ypinit
+.Nd build and install NIS databases
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Fl m
+.Op Ar domainname
+.Nm
+.Fl s
+.Ar master_server
+.Op Ar domainname
+.Nm
+.Fl u
+.Op Ar domainname
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility is a script which sets up databases on a Network Information Service
+(NIS)
+master or slave server.
+.Pp
+On a master server,
+.Nm
+creates the
+.Pa /var/yp/$DOMAINNAME
+directory, the
+.Pa /var/yp/ypservers
+file, and calls
+.Pa /var/yp/Makefile
+to create and populate an initial set of NIS maps.
+The maps are
+created from local source files using the
+.Xr yp_mkdb 8
+utility.
+The utility will prompt the user for a list of servers
+that support the specified domain; this list is used to populate
+the ypservers map.
+.Pp
+On a slave server,
+.Nm
+creates the
+.Pa /var/yp/$DOMAINNAME ,
+populates it with copies of the NIS maps from the master.
+The maps
+are obtained from the master using the
+.Xr ypxfr 8
+utility.
+The
+.Nm
+utility obtains the list of maps to transfer in one of two ways: if
+the system is configured as an NIS client and is bound to the master
+server,
+.Nm
+is able to use the
+.Xr ypwhich 1
+utility to obtain a list of maps exported by the master server.
+If the system is not configured as a client of the NIS master,
+.Nm
+uses a hardcoded list of maps, some of which may or may not actually
+exist on the master.
+The system administrator can edit the
+.Nm
+script and
+modify the map list if necessary.
+Otherwise, individual maps can
+be transferred manually from the master using
+.Xr ypxfr 8 .
+.Sh OPTIONS
+The
+.Nm
+utility supports the following options:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl m Op Ar domainname
+Set up a master server.
+By default,
+.Nm
+sets up a server for
+the system default domain.
+The user can override this default by specifying
+.Ar domainname
+explicitly.
+Maps are constructed from scratch using local files as templates using
+the
+.Xr yp_mkdb 8
+utility.
+.It Fl s Ar master_server Op Ar domainname
+Set up a slave server using
+.Ar master_name
+as the master.
+Maps are copied from
+.Ar master_server
+to the slave using
+.Xr ypxfr 8 .
+By default,
+.Nm
+sets up a server for
+the system default domain.
+The user can override this default by specifying
+.Ar domainname
+explicitly.
+.It Fl u Op Ar domainname
+Update the ypservers map on the master server.
+When a new slave
+server is added to a domain, its hostname must be added to the
+ypservers map so that
+.Xr yppush 8
+can propagate updates on the master to all of the slaves.
