==NIS (Network Information Services)==
NIS server is used to synchronize files between machines. In this lab you will set up your Fedora PC as both an NFS and NIS server. You will then use your VM's to serve as your NFS and NIS clients.
{{Admon/important|Prerequisites|Before you begin make sure your Fedora 16 host and virtual machines are up to date (yum update).<br />Ensure both host and VM's have firewalls set up according to prior labs and all labs have been completed. Ensure you are using your learnid account (the first user created - this will be <b>critical</b> for success). Ensure that your nfs server is running on the host and exporting the '/home' directory. }}
