NIS setup

Hi -

I'm trying to setup a NIS client for the first time and am having some
trouble. I used an older FreeBSD article as a guide
(http://www.freebsddiary.org/nis-client.php), and wanted to know if
there are any Dragonfly specifics that I needed to be aware of. The
machine is running 1.3.7-DEVELOPMENT built from sources a couple of
days ago. Generically, NIS doesn't seem to work. Specifically,
something like the below errors out.

sldev12-l# ypcat passwd
ypcat: no such map passwd.byname. reason: Can't bind to server which
serves this domain
sldev12-l# rpcinfo -p
   program vers proto   port
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper

Other clients (Sun/Linux) have no trouble connecting to the server.
Thanks for any advice.
