Do you mean that the HUP has no effect?

Could you clarify what you mean here?  How long do you leave the
service stopped when you try stopping the box compared to the amount of
time it's stopped when you're rebooting?  My guess would be that either
some timeout expires during the reboot or an error kicked back by the
network stack while the host is down confuses ypserv.

Well, until ypbind can cope with rebinding there is little point in libc
telling it about problems.
