[comp.protocols.nfs] PCNFS and slave NIS servers

I'm having a problem authenticating users on Sun PCNFS when the PC uses a 
PCNFS daemon other than the rpc.pcnfsd on the master NIS server.  What happens
is that the PC is unable to find the master NIS server when it boots so it
goes to a slave NIS server.  When the NET NAME joe *" command executes,
we always get an authentication error.  Does anybody know whats going on?
BTW, I'm running the C2 security features.  All slave NIS servers have a
rpc.pcnfsd daemon running.
