Why can't I push a new NIS map

Hi,
My NIS master is brscs14 running Solaris 8 Generic_108528-26 and is
pushing all my standard map OK
I have just added the project map entry to the Makefile and it just sits
there at :-
root: make
updated project

If I run :-
root: /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/yppush -v -h brscs12 -d brs.infineon.com
project.byname
I get :-
Verifying YP server: brscs12
brscs12 has been called.
timeout in main loop select.
No response yet from ypxfr on brscs12

If I go to the slave server and run
root: ypinit -s brscs14

Installing the YP database will require that you answer a few questions.
Questions will all be asked at the beginning of the procedure.

Do you want this procedure to quit on non-fatal errors? [y/n: n]
OK, please remember to go back and redo manually whatever fails. If you
don't, some part of the system (perhaps the yp itself) won't work.
The yp domain directory is /var/yp/brs.infineon.com
Can we destroy the existing /var/yp/brs.infineon.com and its contents?
[y/n: n] y
There will be no further questions. The remainder of the procedure
should take
a few minutes, to copy the data bases from brscs14.
Transferring ypservers...

Transferring group.byname...

Transferring hosts.byaddr...

Transferring netid.byname...
Transferring timezone.byname...
Transferring auto.home...

Transferring printcap.byname...
Transferring printcap.bykey...

brscs12's nis data base has been set up

 without any errors.

It does not pull the projects files

I can see the project database files in the domain directory:-
root: ls -l project.by*
-rw------- 1 root other 0 Mar 4 16:59
brs.infineon.com/project.byname.dir
-rw------- 1 root other 1024 Mar 4 16:59
brs.infineon.com/project.byname.pag
-rw------- 1 root other 0 Mar 4 16:59
brs.infineon.com/project.byprojid.dir
-rw------- 1 root other 1024 Mar 4 16:59
brs.infineon.com/project.byprojid.pag

What am I missing?
