O'Reilly just came out with the 2nd edition of NFS and NIS. The 1st edition is 1991 & SunOS specific. I haven't looked at the new one as I don't do NIS nowadays, but I sure prayed for it to cover something other then SunOS in the days of Solaris 2.5.1. I'd grab it in a second if I was doing NIS.
The Nemeth Purple (red previously) has a section on NIS too. You should have that book if you're doing sys admin anyways. If its NIS isn't enough, get the O'Reilly book.
