Probably the same as any other 11.31 server, you should keep them all up to date. Are you current with patches?

Re: yppasswd and /var/adm/ptmp
According to 11.31 yppasswdd man page, yppasswdd can write a log file. If the daemon has been started using the same command line as the examples in the man page, the log file should be /var/adm/yppasswdd.log. Does it exist? If it exists, does it contain anything informative?

Re: yppasswd and /var/adm/ptmp
Yes it's exist but it doesn't write any information.
# ls -ltr /var/adm/yp*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 0 Sep 4 11:39 /var/adm/yppasswdd.log
#
This is the output for ps -ef :
root 11535 1 0 Sep 4 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/rpc.yppasswdd -D /etc/NIS -l /var/adm/yppasswdd.log -m passwd DIR=/etc/NIS
