Don't know the answer to the problem but,
my NIS client couldn't bind to my NIS server (itself)
until one day I set up a DNS server (another computer)
for my Intranet. Then NIS started working.
Both computers are in /etc/hosts and /etc/nsswitch.conf
says try hosts first.
I'm confused.

Have a look at either netpbm or imagemagick packages.
Netpbm might do what you want; Imagemagick does. You'll probably need to
