	48	.Op Fl h Ar host
	49	.Op Fl d Ar domain
	50	.Ar server
	51	.Sh DESCRIPTION
	52	.Nm Ypset
	53	tells the
	54	.Xr ypbind 8
	55	process on the current machine which YP server process to communicate with.
	56	If
	57	.Ar server
	58	is down or is not running a YP server process, it is not discovered until
	59	a YP client process attempts to access a YP map, at which time
	60	.Xr ypbind 8
	61	tests the binding and takes appropriate action.
	62	.Pp
	63	.Nm Ypset
	64	is most useful for binding a YP client that is not on the same broadcast
	65	network as the closest YP server, but can also be used for debugging
	66	a local network's YP configuration, testing specific YP client
	67	programs, or binding to a specific server when there are many servers on
	68	the local network supplying YP maps.
	69	.Pp
	70	The options are as follows:
	71	.Bl -tag -width indent
	72	.It Fl h Ar host
	73	Set the YP binding on
	74	.Ar host
	75	instead of the local machine.
	76	.It Fl d Ar domain
	77	Use the YP domain
	78	.Ar domain
	79	instead of the default domain as returned by
	80	.Xr domainname 1 .
