No answer the first time, so I thought that I'd try again.
I don't think YP/NIS is what you wish. And your answer is in the error message,you have no NIS server installed and configured. You should read the NIS Howto.

I have a two node, dual boot LAN. At this point, if one machine is running SuSE v6.3 and the other Windows 95 they can communicate via Samba which is convenient for som of my computational work. However I want the two nodes to communicate when they are both running Linux. Therefore, I installed ypclient and attempted to configure the service using yast.
On boot, to init 2, I get the message 'ypbind . . . . . . no NIS serve found'
I'm sure that the answer is going to be a red faced forehead slapper, but what have I done incorrectly, or what haven't done correctly?
Thanks in advance.
