(no particular ordering implied)
1. Make all the NIS+ maps readable by nobody. This is the default when
you use nissetup -Y. You will not be able to use yppasswd and such
on the NIS clients. If your NIS domains aren't being served by
NIS+ servers, you can still login from the NIS+ clients.
2. NIS clients have the privileges of "nobody" under NIS+.
So any maps or columns which are readible by nobody are
available to NIS clients. See nischmod, niscat -o, and
nisls for a better description of what permissions you've
got. Also, don't forget to start rpc.nisd with the -Y
option.
3. No support for netgroups was found in 2.1
