After six months of successful NIS operation, you modify the NIS Makefile on the
NIS master server to build a map that did NOT exist before. The modified Makefile is configured to
build a new auto.direct automount map and then distribute the new map to the slave servers. After
you complete the edits on the Makefile, you run the make command, which requires that you enter
Ctrl-C to return to the shell prompt:
# /usr/ccs/bin/make
updated netid
pushed netid
updated auto.direct C
*** auto.direct.time removed.
There are no syntax errors in the modified Makefile.
Which statement is true about the screen output?
A.
The new auto.direct map was NOT distributed to the slave servers.
B.
The Makefile was correct, but the administrator did NOT create the /etc/auto_direct file.
C.
The auto.direct.time file is a log file that holds possible errors, and no errors were generated.
D.
The auto.direct.time file is a temporary file used to hold the contents of the
/etc/auto_direct file while the corresponding NIS map is being built, and this file is removed after
the map is successfully built.
