I haven't do any ipa-nis configuration for a while, here is my old 
notes, they might still work

    * NIS client host set up in general

This is what RHEL linux should follow. 
<http://rome.sjc.redhat.com/mediawiki/index.php/IPA_NIS_plugin_test_plan#NIS_Configuration_Guide> 


   1. Append the following line in the */etc/sysconfig/network* file:
          * NISDOMAIN=mynisdomain
   2. Append the following line in */etc/yp.conf* :
          * domain mynisdomain server 192.168.0.1 replace ip to the IPA
            server IP
   3. Make sure the following lines contain 'nis' as an option in the
      file */etc/nsswitch.conf*
          * passwd: files nis
          * shadow: files nis
          * group: files nis
          * hosts: files nis dns
          * networks: files nis
          * protocols: files nis
          * publickey: nisplus
          * automount: files nis
          * netgroup: files nis
          * aliases: files nisplus
   4. restart ypbind and portmap
          * */etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind restart*
          * */etc/rc.d/init.d/portmap restart*
