Yup. That's why it is working for my Intel clients. :-)

Done. Just did it again for good measure.

Done on the master and the client (in that order). Server messages:
Setting NIS domainname to: mit.edu
Starting NIS services: ypserv yppasswdd ypxfrd ypbind
Client messages:
Setting NIS domainname to: mit.edu
Starting NIS services: ypbind
Also, /etc/yp.conf has the correct ypserver on the master and client. Still
doesn't work on the Netwinder- "YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound".

This gives the correct server name on the master and the intel clients. On the
Netwinder, it gives:
can't yp_bind: Reason: Domain not bound
Thanks very much for the debugging help! Hopefully we'll get to the bottom of
this soon. It's not mission-critical, as the Netwinder really isn't a
functioning desktop yet. I hope it might expose a problem in the software, and
lead to a fix that helps some others.
I'm having a couple of X problems, but I'll start them in a new thread...
