Good luck. I tried but was never able to effectively disable this
function (many things broke if you tried). No one else I have dealt
with has been able to, either. Most don't think it's worth the
effort.
It doesn't do any harm to have them running if you're not using a
network. In fact, since yp uses ndbm instead of sequential files,
it's generally faster than not. Just make sure you're configured as a
master yp server and don't worry about it.
