X server is an emulation software using which you can access unix servers through GUI.
VNC is on such X Server.
The advantage of using any X server is that the process is runnng on the server and not on the client machine. Hence, even if you close the vnc session or any x-server session, the process would still continue to run on the server. That way, you can avoid issues such as network disruption etc.
A windows analogy would be connecting to a desktop remotely using Remote Desktop Connection. Even though you close the session on the client machine, any process that is being run on the remote machine would still be running!

YPSET(8) BSD System Manager's Manual YPSET(8)
NAME
ypset -- tell ypbind(8) which YP server process to use
SYNOPSIS
ypset [-h host] [-d domain] server
DESCRIPTION
Ypset tells the ypbind(8) process on the current machine which YP server process to communicate with. If server is down or is not running a
YP server process, it is not discovered until a YP client process attempts to access a YP map, at which time ypbind(8) tests the binding and
takes appropriate action.
Ypset is most useful for binding a YP client that is not on the same broadcast network as the closest YP server, but can also be used for
debugging a local network's YP configuration, testing specific YP client programs, or binding to a specific server when there are many
servers on the local network supplying YP maps.
The options are as follows:
-h host
Set the YP binding on host instead of the local machine.
-d domain
Use the YP domain domain instead of the default domain as returned by domainname(1).

domainname(1), ypbind(8), ypcat(1), ypmatch(1), yppoll(8), ypwhich(1), yp(8)
