I inherited a similar problem but different environment, namely, SUSE,
CentOS 4, and CentOS 5 - with SUSE the primary NIS server.

In the end, in order to get everyone to play nicely, I ended up using
the following in the /etc/auto.master file

#+auto.master
/home     yp:auto.home
/usr/grid  yp:auto.grid

etc.
