I am trying to set up a NIS master, but the handbook seems to be out of
date.

When I run ypserv, after a couple minutes, I get the following in
/var/log/messages:
Jun 17 17:36:22 webdev ypserv[9370]: unable to register (YPPROG,
YPOLDVERS, udp)

My domainname is set, and I am running ypinit -m [dommainname], which
gives me the following annoying errors:
yp_mkdb: failed to send 'clear' to local ypserv: RPC: Port mapper
failure

over and over again.

I have portmapper running, so I don't know what to do.  Any help would
be appreciated.

  -Brian
