Fedora and Rocky8 Info

     Some update pushed on Rocky8 and Fedora broke rwho and ruptime on those machines.  They will still provide user status to other servers but are no longer pulling other servers for rwhod.

     Further, ruptime requires the ‘daemon’ command which is no longer available on these machines.

     At some point NIS will disappear from Fedora and when it does we will be forced to retire the machine at that time.  Because we don’t know when this will happen we can not predict this date.  Therefore we recommend NOT relying on that machine for anything.  If you have cron jobs on it, please move them to rocky8 or if you do not need a Redhat environment, one of the other servers.
