You need to set the NIS domainname in /etc/sysconfig/networks

ie: add
NISDOMAIN=3Dyourdomainname
to the end of the file.

If you want to check out whats happenning look at /etc/rc.d

in rc.sysinit you have :

# Set the NIS domain name
if [ -n "$NISDOMAIN" ]; then
    domainname $NISDOMAIN
else
    domainname ""
fi

(Which is set from the networks file)

Normally in rh5.0 you can change this with the level editor (whatever
its called ? ).

In the above cases change the K to an S for the levels you want it
running in ie: 3,4,5

ie: rc3.d/S30ypbind

PS: hopes this helps, I had trouble because I was specifying NISDOMAIN
as NIS_DOMAIN
