This might work --- on the master NIS server

In Makefile do this. (they are reversed as to comments-out)

B=-b
#B=

cd /var/yip
rm host.time
make hosts.time

you could try a "domain" directive in resolv.conf

perhaps -->

you cannot use "search" in resolv.conf

in resolv.conf -- set the NIS domainname to a domain -- set a . or + in
front of the domain name, so NIS sees the "whole thing".
