Created attachment 597046 [details]
patch consulted with upstream
With this patch ypbind won't go offline when one of the servers is localhost.
I happened to look at the patch. The check is for IP address 127.0.0.1, correct for typical use, but remember than all 127.x.y.z IP addresses are localhost. K.O.
