The way to setup the NIS is to:

1) set your domain in /etc/defaultdomain
2) run ypinit -c with your NIS servers
3) run /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind

And the piece that made it work! Drum roll please......

COPY /etc/nsswitch.nis TO /etc/nsswitch.conf

Thanks for help. My user will be happy camper this morning!
