No error messages on stdout nor stderr nor syslog. The exit code of ypbind is 0 (zero). It seems to be a heisenbug: When ktraceing ypbind directly in rc.network, starting ypbind manually, or when doing a `sleep 1' before starting ypbind in rc.network, everything is fine. Maybe the portmapper is not ready yet, when ypbind starts. Unfortunately, when starting the portmapper with -d as a background process, the problem disappears, too. I really don't know how to dig into it. Has anyone an idea?
