I would grab the rpm's from SuSE's sight.  RH has completely mangled something 
in the yp stuff.  We've had a lot of problems with it here.

Currently we're running an all Linux network with NIS, and it's working, but 
occasionally it gets flaky on us (yp pushes don't happen, ypinit -s suddenly 
fails to work, etc.).

NIS on Linux is definitely not where it should be yet.  Though I don't know 
why a Solaris system would not bind to it, but I've never actually tried 
either.

I'll poke around and see if I can find anything.
