Yes. You do have a problem with your yp installation.
Start with 'domainname' and see if it returns the correct domain.
Then do 'ypwhich' to see which server you are using.
Then do 'ypcat passwd' to see the list of passwords.
If any of these fail (which I am anticipating), you should fix your
yp installation.
This is not a Java problem.
