I can also confirm this bug on 8.04.1 LTS (i386) Server.
When running "make" in /var/yp:
r...@dizzy:/var/yp# make
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/yp/sim.gdls.com'
Updating netid.byname...
Segmentation fault
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/yp/sim.gdls.com'
Or while running ypinit:
r...@dizzy:/var/yp# /usr/lib/yp/ypinit -m
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts which will run NIS
servers. dizzy.simwin.gdls.com is in the list of NIS server hosts. Please
continue to add
the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the
list, type a <control D>.
next host to add: dizzy.simwin.gdls.com
next host to add:
The current list of NIS servers looks like this:
dizzy.simwin.gdls.com
Is this correct? [y/n: y] Y
We need a few minutes to build the databases...

dizzy.simwin.gdls.com has been set up as a NIS master server.
Now you can run ypinit -s dizzy.simwin.gdls.com on all slave server.
