Because rpcbind is a dependancy of ypbind, no (real) need to explicitly
enable it... but it doesn't hurt.
I personnaly use a very similar setup at work (Solaris NIS server and
FreeBSD NIS client), and binding point to point the two works great:
# grep nis /etc/rc.conf
nisdomainname="domain"
nis_client_enable="YES"
nis_client_flags="-ypset -s -m -S domain,foor,bar"
# /etc/rc.d/ypbind start
If ypwhich(1) don't tell you more on the hostname of NIS server, the
problem may come from the configuration of the server, not the client.
