Yes, it's there, in the "firstboot" screen, below the fields where you can add a user account there is a button for network authentication setup which includes NIS (ok, I admit, I have overlooked this at first too :) ) Also, it is available as redhat-config-authentication (from the menu: System Settings - Authentication) Note: in both tools, there is no button for NIS broadcast, but leaving the NIS Server field empty makes that the client will do broadcasting to find a server.
