My NIS server is on a different line (broadcast), so I need to use the
following to designate the server:

# domainname foo
# ypbind -s -ypsetme
# ypset <server_name>

If I just do the first two lines and try to do a ypwhich, it does what is
is supposed to: it says the domain is not bound and gives up. If I do the
ypset line, ypset complains:

ypset: sorry, cannot ypset for domain foo on host

BUT, it works! if I do a ypwhich, it responds w/ the correct server, and
all services work (ypcat, ypmatch, etc.). Weird stuff...

Server is running 2.2.2-RELEASE
