I got one answer and that was the right suggestion. Thanks to Michael DeSimone, Computers & Stuff, which pointed out to check my /etc/nsswitch.conf first.

After that, the error mesages written on the screen was stopped. ----- Original Message ----- > > After upgrading a Sparc OS server to Solaris 8 and adding Solaris 7 OS > service for diskless clients, the following messages are written to the > client alfa's screen for each 15 minutes, eg: > > May 5 12:30:55 alfa sendmail [235]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): > NIS map mail.aliases specified, but NIS not running > > I don't use NIS, only /etc/hosts. > > Why and how can I stop this messages written to the screen? > > > TIA, > > Terje J.
