have you checked to see whether or not the client can actually ping/resolve the NIS IP/name? Maybe its not a NIS problem but a DNS problem

ypbind - multiple instances starting

I have built this Solaris 10 server, uses NIS. When the server starts up, two instances of ypbind start. This prevents the server from binding to any domain. The SMF in turn prevents any other network services (sshd and the like) from starting up. Has anyone seen this problem before? (0 Replies)

NAME
domainname - set or display name of Network Information Service domain SYNOPSIS
[name_of_domain] DESCRIPTION
Network Information Service (NIS) uses domain names to refer collectively to a group of hosts. Without an argument, domainname displays the name of the NIS domain. Only superuser can set the domain name by providing name_of_domain. The domain name is usually set in the configuration file by setting the variable. The name_of_domain is normally a valid Internet domain name. DEPENDENCIES
NIS servers use the NIS domain name as the name of a subdirectory of Therefore, name_of_domain cannot be a or and it must not contain Since the NIS domain name can be as long as 64 characters, name_of_domain may exceed the maximum file name length allowed on a given file system. If that length is exceeded, the subdirectory name becomes a truncated version of the NIS domain name. The first 14 characters of all NIS domains on the network must be unique; truncated names should be checked to verify that they meet this requirement. AUTHOR
