We are trying to get NFS and Yellow Pages running across a heterogenous Unix 
network consisting of DECstations (ULTRIX), HPs (HP-UX), Stardent GS's 
(Stellix), and Stardent Vistras (AT&T System V).

We've had some success but are having a problem getting Yellow Pages to work
on the Stardent Vistras. They are running AT&T System V Release 4 Unix.
From what I can see, Yellow Pages appears to be unsupported in System V as
there is no documentation that I can find either online or in the AT&T manual
set. However, we've done what we thought was right (there are no AT&T Unix 
experts here) yet Yellow Pages won't function. When I type `ypwhich', I get 
a "domain not bound" error.

Here's what we did:

	1) Set up a master server and 2 slave servers. These work fine
	   when serving the ULTRIX and Stardent GS machines.
	2) Ensured that `ifconfig' properly sets the network mask and
	   broadcast address on the Vistra.
	3) Used `domainname' to declare the proper domain name, i.e. the one
	   being served by the master and slave servers.
	4) Ran `ypbind'. It seems to start successfully as there are no errors.

Yet we still get "domain not bound" errors. We also tried:

	5) Running `ypinit' and giving it the names of the Yellow Pages 
	   servers. I'm not sure if we need this command as we weren't familiar
	   with it from other versions of Yellow Pages.
	6) Rebooted several times.

Can anyone help us with this problem? Please email to me.

Thanks!

P.S. For those who don't know, the Vistras come from Stardent which went
     bankrupt last January. Thus, we have no support for them.
