[Stardent Vistras can't run YP.]

There were a large number of bugs in the NIS (aka YP) that came with SVR4.
The bugs ranged to imcompatibilities at the data level to kernel problems.
Intel and a number of other companies labored hard to fix these problems
last year and submitted the changes back to USL.

If I recall correctly, Stardent was one of those companies.  Contact them
for help.
