ypwhich: clnt_create error: RPC: Unknown host

I am able to get my hostname as o/p of ypwhich command from root but when i am running ypwhich from oracle user i am getting the following error.
ypwhich: clnt_create error: RPC: Unknown host

bcoz of this oracle user says he is not able to upgrade the database. He is getting the same error while running nslookup but when root is executing the same command, no error is coming.

Can somebody help me ?

Try by running the command from full absolute path with oracle user.

Thanks

I disabled NIS on the server and edited /etc/nsswitch.conf file to read only local files for all entries.
