ypmatch: can't match key YP_LAST_MODIFIED in map master.passwd.byname. reason: No such map in server's domain

I forgot mentioning that I'm running 4.9-PRERELEASE (doh), and I couldn't 
locate such a function but adding
   return(YP_HAVE_NONE);
in top of _have_master(char *_yp_domain) solved the problem for me.

Thanks a lot for pointing me into the right direction!!

(After getting rid of tje master.pass.byname-errors I also noticed a bunch of
similar warnings for networks.byaddr, but that was easier to get rid of =))
