When I use yppasswd I get the error message:
yppasswd: yppasswdd not running on NIS master host ("localhost").
Unfortunately, localhost is NOT the NIS master host:
# ypwhich
<realhost>
and
# rpcinfo -p <realhost> |grep yppasswd
    100009    1   udp    659  yppasswdd

I can't find any docs for this problem. Of course I can run yppasswd on the
master host, but it would be so nice to run it locally :-)
Any suggestions?
Niels
