A/UX as a Yellow Pages Client

Has anyone tried to use an A/UX system as a yellow pages client to Sun
yellow pages servers?  We have been able to put our A/UXs into their own
domain and serve each other.  However, if we try to put the A/UXs into our
general domain as clients where the servers are Sun workstations, ypbind
will hang on the A/UXs.

We are running A/UX 1.1 on our Macs and SunOS 4.0.3 on our Suns.  Yellow pages
works fine between the Suns.  If it makes a difference, our domainname is
".udev.cdc.com".  We have followed the "Installing the Yellow Pages on a 
client system" instructions in the "A/UX Network System Adminstration" 
manual to the letter.

Thanks for any insight.
