NIS problem

[Rishikesh <rishi@math.ohio-state.edu>]

	I am trying to make NIS work on my home network.
	I have followed the HOWTO below to the word.
	http://lyre.mit.edu/~powell/debian-howto/nis.html
	I keep getting error message

	YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound

	I searched the archive of the debian mailing
	lists and did not find any discussion related to
	this message. 
	Any help will be appreciated.

	I have a small 3 computer home network
	connected using a Belkin router.

	Thanks in advance.
