When running 

ypinit -s master.domain.test nisdomain 

I get the following error

ypxfr: master.domain.test: YPPROC_MATCH failed: RPC: Timed out

when transferring hosts.byname...

I have the following style of /etc/hosts file

127.0.0.1	localhost.domain.test localhost
192.168.0.1	master.domain.test master
192.168.0.3	other.domain.test other

I have other failures due to not having an ethers file etc

but this has me bluffed..

Any ideas?
