You're an illegal user!

It's mounting /home OK, but refuses to bind to NIS. I have so far been
unable to convince it that morwong is, in fact, alive.
On start/restart, the NIS daemon (nsd) prints the following line to
syslog:
Jun 27 21:11:15 3D:azure nsd[1228]: NIS server for domain whalefish not
responding.
morwong is, of course, pingable, and all the services that seem to be
required are started. `nsd -v -l 6` reveals nothing particuarly
interesting: the connection appears to be timing out.
Might be a firewalling issue or something; however, I have no time left to
examine this issue. Perhaps one of the old-skool UNIX people can take a
look?
