yppasswdd problem

Hi all !

I expect someone might help me with the following yppasswdd problem:

I have a NIS master, using OpenBSD 3.2-stable. NIS clients (Debian - sarge) can authenticate without problem, with old passwd encryption.

yppasswdd is started at boottime :
# ps auwx | grep yppasswd
root 20364 0.0 0.0 60 308 ?? Is 10:22PM 0:00.00 rpc.yppasswdd -d /etc

>From the client, once a user connected, I get the following error when changing the password :
~$ yppasswd
yppasswd: yppasswdd not running on NIS master host

However, I have the following :
~$ rpcinfo -p sushi

   program vers proto port
    100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper     100000 2 udp 111 portmapper     100004 2 udp 821 ypserv

The OpenBSD server is really master and everything exept yppasswdd works well. Any idea ? Maybe someone sees what I may have forgotten...
