Yes... I am using -S (not -s). I figured that that I needed to do this, as
the ypbind man pages states "This option is used to insure that the system
binds only to one domain and only to one of the specified servers, which is
useful for systems that are both NIS servers and NIS clients..."

Since both master and slave are both clients and servers, I figured that
this would be the most appropriate settings... ie.

ypbind -S domain,masterserver,slaveserver

Do you have more information on this?  

Peace,
Blake
