I have yp running on two 3130's as a separate domain, but the 3130's do 
not work as slave servers or clients of Sun's (this is the yp of SGI
Rel 3.5).

The cause of this appears to be that the rpc implementation is a little
mangled. The IRIS fails to recognize a properly registered server program
on the Sun (of the same version number).

This may be fixed in Rel 3.6
