Ah, my bread and butter.

# Hello,

# I'm trying to add a Solaris 7 client, and I can't figure out how to

# yppush: error finding master for shadow.byname in grok: No such map in
# server's domain
# 
# The slave server doesn't get the new map, and "ypcat shadow" doesn't

# servers know about?

When you say "shadow", first of all, are you sure that the shadows
are compatible between Solaris and NetBSD?  I seem to recall that being
a problem.

What's ypwhich -m say?

You may have to run a 'ypinit -s zippy' on your Sol7 client.
You may also need to make good'n'sure that your sol7 client is actually
binding to your master.

Do you have a ypservers map?

Just some stuff to ask over.  Hope it helps.
