We are seeing a problem that occurs ~5% of the time when rebooting
CentOS 7.7 where systemd gets a 'Connection timed out' to D-Bus just
after the D-Bus service starts - from 'journalctl -x' :

We've managed to work out what the problem is - it is the same issue as given in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1531486

We have a legacy use of NIS for groups - which can cause a boot time deadlock:

 systemd->dbus->nis(glibc)->rpcbind->systemd

A workaround is given in https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3900301 (account needed to view) - but it is just essentially reverting the changes made to /usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.socket between 7.5 and 7.6
