Subject: NetBSD 0.9 and ypbind to Sun: is it possible

I couldn't help but notice NetBSD 0.9 has some NIS client support and
would like to know just which map names it is supporting.

Also, ypbind is unable to talk to our domain, even through the use of
a ypset command. The yp domain is being served by a SunOS 4.1.3 SPARC.

I belive I've setup the normal yp client stuff but feel that I must be
overlooking something - any help would be appreciated, even if it's
just an acknowledgment that "YES, it works with SunOS 4.1.3 NIS masters"

thanks,
