If you're looking at diskless, could you investigate the issues associated with rpcbind being run before /var is writable (I believe)? The result is that rpc.lockd can't be properly started, breaking boatloads of stuff. :-) Likewise, rpc.lockd also shouldn't be started before /var is writable. Also, it looks like pwd_mkdb's support for NIS got broken sometime recently: cboss# pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd pwd_mkdb: uid is incorrect pwd_mkdb: at line #22 pwd_mkdb: /etc/master.passwd: Inappropriate file type or format The same password worked fine a few months ago (it's barfing on the +:::::::::, needless to say).
