We just updated our configuratiosn to have multiple NIS servers, when we
initiated a test of client failover, we were disapointed.

It seemed that the only way to get a filaover was to /etc/init.d/ypbind restart.

It behaves as indicated in
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5084845 using
ypbind-1.17.2-13 on Centos 4.5 / Linux xxxxxxxxxxxx 2.6.9-55.0.12.ELsmp #1 SMP
Fri Nov 2 12:38:56 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any advice?
