Hi,

I see that /etc/rc.d/ypxfrd has,

  # PROVIDE: ypxfrd
  # REQUIRE: rpcbind

but ypxfrd_precmd() does a forcestart on both rpcbind and
ypserv,

  ypxfrd_precmd()
  {
    if ! checkyesno rpcbind_enable  && \
        ! /etc/rc.d/rpcbind forcestatus 1>/dev/null 2>&1
    then
        force_depend rpcbind || return 1
    fi
    if ! checkyesno nis_server_enable && \
        ! /etc/rc.d/ypserv forcestatus 1>/dev/null 2>&1
    then
        force_depend ypserv || return 1
    fi

    _domain=`domainname`
    if [ -z "$_domain" ]; then
        warn "NIS domainname(1) is not set."
        return 1
    fi
  }

So why isn't ypserv part of ypxfrd's REQUIRE?

Using 'REQUIRE: rpcbind ypserv' would make /etc/rc
naturally execute ypserv before ypxfrd, courtesy of
rcorder.
