Sounds like your map file is not NISified.. here is the Makefile snipit
that I used to generate a good NIS map from an amd map:
$(YPDBDIR)/$(DOM)/amd.ump.time: $(YPSRCDIR)/amd.ump
@/usr/bin/cat $(YPSRCDIR)/amd.ump | \
/usr/local/bin/perl \
-pe 's:\\\s*\n|\s*#.*|^\s*\n::g;s:\s{2,}: :g' | \
$(MAKEDBM) - $(YPDBDIR)/$(DOM)/amd.ump;
@touch $(YPDBDIR)/$(DOM)/amd.ump.time;
@echo "updated amd.ump";
@if [ ! $(NOPUSH) ]; then $(YPPUSH) -d $(DOM) amd.ump; fi
@if [ ! $(NOPUSH) ]; then echo "pushed amd.ump"; fi
Note.. this is from an HP Makefile. So the Makefile targets may need
modification if you drop it in place.
