NIS+ and YP compatibility


Hi,
      I am tring to set up a Sol2.5.1 machine, to be both a YP client
      to one domain, eso1 and a NIS+ master of another domain,
      secure.eso.org. All works well except yp and nis+ both look
      in the same place for their domain name, the value returned
      from sysinfo. This screws one or the other, dependant on whats
      been set in /etc/defaultdomain. And if this has been changed after
      say nis+ has been set, for yp to use, then nis+ will fail.
      
      Is it possible to change where yp or nis+ look for this info.
      Is there any source available for this so I can change it?

      Ideas?
      
Kind regards,

Simon.
