Hi, After playing around yp and the patch, I got a simple result: the application runs happily without yp configured, no matter the patch applied or not. I disable yp by simply hitting "domainname ''", and re-enable it by hitting "domainname mynisdomainname". The application mentioned above is winconnect (http://www.thinsoftinc.com/products_winconnect_info.html), a RDP 5.1 capable client for Linux. I think the yp ability inside linux emulator is somewhat broken.
