run 'nisdomain' on client machine


make sure you're using the same nisdomain as ypserver uses
Att! It's not nessesary your real domain, you mai call it "BLAH"
for example.

also check that on client machine you have 

domain 'YOUR NISDOMAIN NAME' server 'YOUR_YPSERVER_IP'
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
has to be IP address, hostname won't work

in /etc/yp.conf 

on server side run 'ypserv -debug' to check if it recieves request from
client.
