while ypbind-mt does work for NIS, all the yp-tools seem to
be having problems with the new daemon.  For instance:

[pbrown@pip pbrown]$ ypcat passwd
No such map passwd.byname. Reason: Can't communicate with
portmapper
[pbrown@pip pbrown]$ ps auxw | grep yp
pbrown   30583  0.0  0.6  1148   408  p9 S    10:35   0:00
