The visible symptoms are that any attempts at resolution fail with a claim
that no server is bound. ypbind does not gripe at load time, though.

I have never used tcpdump, but I did attach straces of ypbind being
started up under both 2.1.127-pre2 (the last kernel for which NIS has
worked for me) and 2.1.127-pre7.

Once up, I entered:

$ ypcat hosts

then

$ killall ypbind

Strace seems quite broken under newer kernels, but perhaps someone more
knowledgable can glean something from the information.
