Bug#906436: 906436: nis: /etc/init.d/nis doesn't start ypbind, thus ypwhich timeouts

[Nuno Oliveira]

Hi Bertrand,

I got a similar behaviour. This is probably due to dropped NetworkManager 
support in the last package version by Michael Biebl. Presently I cannot
run sucessfully a plain
/usr/sbin/ypbind

in a startup script, not even in /etc/rc.local. If this is a run after 
system startup, then nis starts normally, though.

Regards,

Nuno.
