do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
In my case system was doing hostlookup. In my /etc/nsswitch.conf file, hosts line was:
hosts: files nis dns
I have changed this hosts line to:
hosts: files dns [NOTFOUND=return]
I am always using DNS for host records, not NIS hosts.byname etc.
Without knowing what you've checked, here is a stab in the dark:
- Check the status of the
rpcbind
service. - What does
/etc/nsswitch.conf
look like on the client? - Check all your maps (which are in use per nsswitch) with
yptest -m
. ypmatch localhost hosts
