NIS client service failure

[Ashish Sharma]

Have set up a NIS server and a client on two different HP UX 11 systems.

The server process starts ok, but the NIS client fails at booting.

However, passwords created on master are working on the client machines.

Here is the copy of rc.log file:

starting NIS CLIENT networking
starting up the rpcbind
rpcbind already started, using pid: 461
domainname pds_dom
starting up the Network Information Service
starting up the ypbind daemon
/usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind
Checking NIS binding.
Unable to bind to NIS server using domain pds_dom.
starting up the keyserv daemon
/usr/sbin/keyserv
"/sbin/rc2.d/S420nis.client start" FAILED

Pls help.

Ashish.
