I found that the problem is being caused by ypserv, but I don't know why. When I run, ypserv -d, the screen scrolls up with the error message below, until I kill the process. ypserv: procedure ypproc_domain_nonack called from IP_Address:PID Where the IP_Address is the machine's address. Does anyone know what this means?
