Actually, Yellow Pages just doesn't work very well on HP.  I still
have a call in to the Response Center from two months ago trying to fix
sendmail requiring a complete hosts table on all client nodes (800 server
and 300-based cluster client).  Since nobody called back, I supposed it
was just broken and haven't called in with the other plethora of problems
with Yellow Pages.  Sigh.  HP does make very nice graphics terminals :-)
