System: NetBSD smaug 1.4.2A NetBSD 1.4.2A (SMAUG) #10: Thu Mar 30 15:05:16 MEST 2000 feyrer@smaug:/disk1/cvs/src-1.4/sys/arch/sparc/compile/SMAUG sparc


>Description:
	If /var/yp/bindings/<domain>.ypservers exists (as setup by 'ypinit
	-c'),  ypinit will just hang. If the file's removed, everything works
	just fine. (The usual NIS setup steps are OK - domainname etc.)
  
	This is on 1.5_ALPHA2/i386.

>How-To-Repeat:
	ypinit -c
	enter your nis servers
	start rpcbind etc
	ypbind <- hangs
	rm /var/yp/binding/<domain>.ypservers
	ypbind <- works

>Fix:
	NFC
