NIS client for Debian
---------------------

The ypbind-mt is a multi-threaded implementation of the NIS (formerly Yellow Pages) client.
The full NIS configuration of servers and clients is documented in the `nis'
package howto, and it is quite articulated. 

Basically, you need to provide the NIS network domain name in the /etc/defaultdomain file
and at least a NIS server name/address in /etc/yp.conf, if the broadcast mode
is not enabled for rpcbind on the server (which is the default mode of operation).

Additional arguments for ypbind can be passed within a /etc/default/nis file by
setting a YPBINDARGS environment variable if needed, which is preferred to
overriding its systemd service unit file.
