[tech] Odd NIS outage

[Nick Bannon]

We just had a strange NIS problem around 4pm. "id" was hanging, and
ssh'ing to mooneye, for example, resulted in "You don't exist, go
away!".

I restarted /sbin/init.d/nis on morwong and it recovered. If it happens
again we should try to track it down...

Nick.
