Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nis

The bind_wait function in /etc/init.d/nis calls ypwhich to see if the
NIS server is up, but as it runs the command without a full path, it
will always fail in contexts where a PATH has not been set.

This appears to be true of all versions of the init script installed up
to Hardy.

Prepending /usr/bin to the three instances of ypwhich fixes the problem,
but you may wish to set a variable like ${NET}.

** Affects: nis (Ubuntu)
