Hi bakunin,
I used your method and found out the problem was with HostA, because it can connect to every hosts but none can connect to it. so I asked system admin to check on the netgroups that HostA belonged to and eventually we realized there was a particular netgroup hostA should be added to.
The connection is working now. A method or a thought to investigate a problem is more valuable than a direct answer, because that would help people to learn more stuff.
Thanks for your help.

revnetgroup
REVNETGROUP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual REVNETGROUP(8)
NAME
revnetgroup -- generate reverse netgroup data
SYNOPSIS
revnetgroup -u -h [-f netgroup_file]
DESCRIPTION
revnetgroup processes the contents of a file in netgroup(5) format into what is called reverse netgroup form. That is, where the original
file shows netgroup memberships in terms of which members reside in a particular group, the reverse netgroup format specifies what groups are
associated with a particular member. This information is used to generate the netgroup.byuser and netgroup.byhosts YP maps. These reverse
netgroup maps are used to help speed up netgroup lookups, particularly for the innetgr() library function.
For example, the standard /etc/netgroup file may list a netgroup and a list of its members. Here, the netgroup is considered the key and the
member names are the data. By contrast, the reverse netgroup.byusers database lists each unique member as the key and the netgroups to which
the members belong become the data. Seperate databases are created to hold information pertaining to users and hosts; this allows netgroup
username lookups and netgroup hostname lookups to be performed using independent keyspaces.
By constructing these reverse netgroup databases (and the corresponding YP maps) in advance, the getnetgrent(3) library functions are spared
from having to work out the dependencies themselves on the fly. This is important on networks with large numbers of users and hosts, since it
can take a considerable amount of time to process very large netgroup databases.
The revnetgroup command prints its results on the standard output. It is usually called only by /var/yp/<domain>/Makefile when rebuilding the
YP netgroup maps.
OPTIONS
The revnetgroup command supports the following options:
-u Generate netgroup.byuser output; only username information in the original netgroup file is processed.
-h Generate netgroup.byhost output; only hostname information in the original netgroup file is processed. (Note at least one of the -u or
-h flags must be specified.)
[-f netgroup_file]
The revnetgroup command uses /etc/netgroup as its default input file. The -f flag allows the user to specify an alternate input file.
Specifying ``-'' as the input file causes revnetgroup to read from the standard input.
FILES
/var/yp/<domain>Makefile The Makefile that calls makedbm and revnetgroup to build the YP databases.
/etc/netgroup The default netgroup database file. This file is most often found only on the YP master server.
