Start by reading 'man yp', and then go on to read the manpages for the
utilities and daemons mentioned there.

Basically, you need to set up a couple of options in /etc/sysconfig, and
build the NIS database itself (by running make in /var/yp, after
creating a NIS domain and possibly editing the Makefile there).
