A note before I start: I don't use YP, only hesiod!
If you are running NetBSD 1.4 or later you'll need to play with
/etc/nsswitch.conf. The man page has a lot of info. You probably
want something like:
group: files nis
hosts: files nis
netgroup: files [notfound=return] nis
passwd: files nis
You'll also want to add "dns" to the hosts line if you have any contact
with BIND nameservers.
