Is there a way to list all the NIS clients for an NIS server.

[Bill Medland]

(Seeing as how there hasn't been much of an answer)
Isn't it a meaningless question?  Isn't NIS a fairly stateless 
protocol?  Surely all the clients are potentially all the 
computers that can access the server on the appropriate port 
with the appropriate domain?

In that case I guess the closest answer would be to use iptables 
or something to keep track of who accesses the server on the NIS 
port.
