Hi NIS gurus,

My first crack at using NIS is proving a little rocky.

When I run "/usr/sbin/rpcinfo -u localhost ypserv", I get this:
rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out
program 100004 version 1 is not available
rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out
program 100004 version 2 is not available

When I run "/usr/sbin/rpcinfo -u <hostname> ypserv", I get a good answer:
program 100004 version 1 ready and waiting
program 100004 version 2 ready and waiting

The domainname is set.

I figure my networking is screwed up somewhere but I can ping localhost and this 
machine is, as I type, running http, smtp, pop, Samba, netatalk, etc., to a dozen 
clients and it's not obvious (to me, anyway) what's missing.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Larry
