NIS and Trusted System on HP-UX 11.0

I have a host running 11.0 as a Trusted System
and also serving as a NIS master.
I want to convert it back to a standard system without breaking NIS.
SAM in the audit area is supposed to provide
a "unconvert" but when I try clicking an audit
icon, I get:
"This System is configured as either an NIS server or an NIS client. Converting a system configured for NIS to a trusted system is not allowed."
The odd thing is that it's already a trusted
system and running NIS. The shadow entries are all in /tcb. How do I convert it back?

Just a quick note-

Have you tried to execute tsconvert (used with the -r option I believe) to from the command line?

That is:

/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r
