I am trying to set up NIS for two slackware 10 systems - one master
server, and one client. This is just so that I will have the same user
accounts, etc for the two systems.

I followed the directions in the NIS HOWTO, but I get the following
error on the server:
mj@enterprise:~/seti$ ypwhich -m
Can't get map list for domain enterprise. Reason: Can't bind to server
which serves this domain


If I run ypserv with the -d option, it prints out this:
root@enterprise:/var/yp# ypserv -d
[ypserv (ypserv) 2.13]

Find securenet: 255.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
Find securenet: 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0
ypserv.conf: 192.168.1.0/192.168.1.0:*:*:0
ypproc_domain_nonack("enterprise.yp") [From: 192.168.1.3:32781]
-> Ignored (not a valid domain)


I originally had "enterprise.yp" in my /etc/defaultdomain file, but
changed it to "enterprise" thinking that maybe it didn't like the name.
However, the error message changed not at all (including the fact that
it doesn't use the new name, despite a reboot).
