 As indicated previously I have not had any trouble on the local LAN in
 the
 office in getting NIS to bind to a Solaris 7 server (from FreeBSD
 3.4-stable).
 
 Just tried from home over modem and I do get problems in binding.
 THere were 2 copies of ypbind and they were repeatedly dying and 
 spawning new copies.
 
 tcpdump showed that broadcasts going over home ethernet network rather
 than
 over tun0 interface.
 
 20:02:16.680190 dt.1217 > 192.168.0.255.sunrpc: udp 132
 
 From the man page
 
 ypbind -m -S nis.int.DOMAIN,foo.int.domain,bar.int.domain
 
 fixed the problem for me.
 
 I am wondering if you are in a subnet and your broadcasts are not
 reaching the NIS master.
