I didn't have any problems on 7.10 but after performing a clean install
of 32-bit 8.04 today I couldn't login as my NIS user after reboot.
Here's what I did:

# sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
# sudo aptitude install nis
# sudo vi /etc/nsswitch.conf

passwd:         compat nis
group:          compat nis
shadow:         compat nis

# id mynislogin
uid=10000(mynislogin) ......
# sudo reboot

So, after reboot ypbind was not bound to the server. I solved this by

# sudo vi /etc/rc.local

/etc/init.d/nis restart
