+In Fedora we use systemd for starting services. We need to finish starting
+process of <command>ypbind</command> service not before service is fully
+started, which means <command>ypbind</command> daemon is prepared to answer.
+There is a test script <filename>/usr/libexec/ypbind-post-waitbind</filename>
+used in ypbind.service, that waits for <command>ypbind</command> daemon to be
+fully connected to NIS server and waits by default up to 45s. Sometimes this
+is not enough, because network set up can take longer than 45s during boot, so
+starting ypbind.service fails. User can increase the timeout by setting an
+environment variable NISTIMEOUT in <filename>/etc/sysconfig/ypbind</filename>.
+For example NISTIMEOUT=180 means <command>ypbind</command> will wait up to 180
+seconds for binding to a NIS server. Another option is to enable
+NetworkManager-wait- online.service, which will make <command>ypbind</command>
+to wait until network is properly set up.

+In case something needs to be changed in the ypbind.service, it is adviced not
+to change the ypbind.service directly, but rather to create a new file under
+<filename>/etc/systemd/system/ypbind.service.d/</filename>, i.e. if we need to
+start <command>ypbind</command> before service foo.service, we can create file
+<filename>/etc/systemd/system/ypbind.service.d/wait-foo.conf</filename> with
+the following content:

+If you need to pass other arguments to <command>ypbind</command> daemon withing
+systemd unit file, you can set these arguments as OTHER_YPBIND_OPTS environment

+set a fixed port <command>ypbind</command> should run on, you can specify
+OTHER_YPBIND_OPTS="-p 876" in <filename>/etc/sysconfig/ypbind</filename>.
