Don't be so sure that he's wrong. We installed a lot of 3.3 machines here
when it first came out and some of them had NIS issues which actually
were the result of lo0 not being configured by default.

It didn't happen on every machine which led me to believe it was probably
different sysinstall incantations that did it, unfortunatly I didn't have
time to track down exactly what those incantations were.
