Which of the following commands is used to display the name of the NIS server that a NIS client has been configured to use?
  1. /bin/ypdomainname
  2. /usr/bin/ypcat
  3. /usr/bin/ypwhich
  4. ypbind
Explanation
Answer - C - The /usr/bin/ypwhich command is used to display the name of the NIS server that a NIS client has been configured to use.

Key Takeaway: The ypwhich command identifies which server supplies Network Information Services or NIS services. It also provides information about which server is the master for a map depending on how the ypwhich command is invoked. If this command is invoked without arguments, it displays the name of the NIS server for the local machine.
