Description of problem: I did a fresh install from DVD of the F15 beta - after the installation of all the packages, the system rebooted to the configuration wizard. While creating a local user, I clicked on the button to set up an NIS client to do additional authentication. However, whenever I try to run any kind of 'yp' command, like ypcat {map}, I get the message: "No such map {map}. Reason: Can't bind to server which serves this domain". However, if I issue a 'service ypbind restart' command as root, the service starts up fine and ypbind now connects to the server and ypcat {map} works again. I've checked my /etc/yp.conf file and /etc/sysconfig/network file, which have the correct servers and domain set up - I searched the /var/log/messages for 'ypbind' and found entries that say 'ypbind NIS domain: mydomain.com, NIS server: ', then once I restart the service, there is another entry with the server name filled in that says 'ypbind NIS domain: mydomain.com, NIS server: nis-server.mydomain.com'. This seems like a bug in the startup configuration for ypbind. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ypbind-1.32-8.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time I reboot the computer. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reboot the computer. 2. Run ypcat {map} on a known map name. 3. Returns an error about not binding to the NIS server correctly. Actual results: Error message when running 'yp' commands. Expected results: Commands should not complain about not binding to the server correctly. Additional info:
It is probably related to bug #696629, could you provide some more info, please? Do you use NetworkManager or network service? What is the output of following commands? rpm -q systemd rpm -q dbus rpm -q NetworkManager cat /etc/sysconfig/ypbind

I think this is the same as bug #696629, you can try the new update https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ypbind-1.32-8.fc15.1 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 696629 ***
