I have to agree with Rich, the only decent book out there on NFS/NIS 
is the O'Reilly book.  I'm not sure how out-dated it is.  The version 
I have is getting on in age, and I don't know if they ever came out 
with an update version.

The version I have is quite SunOS-centric, and somethings don't apply 
to Linux very well, like the automounter section, and it's discussion 
of direct vs. indirect maps.  Linux's automounter only supports 
indirect maps, not direct.

But that's all NFS related stuff, not really NIS :)
