This did not exactly work fo me. But once I killed nis_cachmgr and
nispasswd. It worked like a charm!
Here's my original question.

><domainname>: Unable to authenticate NIS+ server.
>This is on the root master server.
>when I do a keylogin from root it says
>Could not find unix.<hostname>@<domainname>'s secret key. /etc/.rootkey
>exists.

I
