Here you are a quick and dirty fix. The ypbind can't bind to the server specified throught the ypserver directive (the directory /var/yp/binding is empty), so after launching ypbind put into /var/yp/binding two files domainname.1 and domainname.2 (i gathered them from another nis client even intel).
