Sort of ...
Initially, I was facing similar issues as you.
Adding
domain <mydomain> broadcast
to /etc/yp.conf finally got NIS going again.
With FC < 11, this had not been required.

NetworkManager? I haven't systematically tested my setup with NM, but
I have been observing several NIS breaksdowns related to NM, SELinux
and gdm interacting.

Hi, I haven't followed all of this Thread but I can confirm NIS works
for F11 here. My Particular config is SELinux Disabled (Note that with
NIS there is a difference between disabled and permissive) and I believe
I was seeing what you see when I was using NetworkManger to control
networking when a system booted it couldn't bind to a ypserver until I
logged in and restarted the service. I tried experimenting with when yp
started and even added a line to rc.local to restart the service. This
made no difference.
I then tried reverting to the network service rather than NetworkManager
and things started working as I expected.
I hope this helps :)
