I have the same problems since 2012-10-03 on my server. My machine was upgraded from 10.04 and worked fine, until yesterday. It began with problems with autofs. And then is saw these problems with nis. My version of ypbind is already 0.2.0-7ubuntu1.1. The effects are the same as in Alex's description.
In my install history, the only upgraded package was xdiagnose. I tried to patch my /etc/init/portmap-wait.conf as suggested in comment #17, but with no effect. Is there any possiblity to view the log for this upstart-job? I my logs, I can only see "Binding to YP server .....backgrounded". Nothing more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007293 Title: nis doesn't work anymore after upgrade to 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rpcbind/+bug/1007293/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
