I have a collection of Sun clients all in the same domain. One of the machines is in another physical building, and thus is not on the same broadcast net. When I run ypbind on this client, it hangs. How do I make use of YP in this situation. I cannot seem to even make this machine a slave server and pull in the maps using "ypinit -s master_server" on the client machine.
