Our internal network is 10.0.0.0/255.255.240.0 and contains our Solaris 7 NIS master.

We just installed a router to isolate our lab, and changed the lab IPs to use the 10.0.16.0/255.255.240.0 network.

I've set up a Solaris 7 NIS slave on the lab network, but it can't seem to receive data from the NIS master on the internal network. The master's yppush says "Status received from ypxfr on nisslave: Failed - ypxfr couldn't get the map master's address." It's probably something obvious, but I've been awake too long.

How can I get the master and slave to communicate across the router?

Thanks, will summarize.
