I too have seen boot problems when NIS is used with NetworkManager with Jessie. Initially after installing Jessie the system boots fine. After NIS is installed the system boot hangs - Login Service fails, Accounts Service fails, Modem Manager fails, and then systemd complains that it is looping too fast and throttles execution. Network Manager and Avahi fail, and then systemd starts an endless loop trying to start binfmt-support.service. I have a wired static eth0 connection, so if I define that in /etc/network/interfaces, NetworkManager will then not manage it and things work. The problem is that the Jessie install with the default gnome desktop removes the eth0 definition, used during the install, from the /etc/network/interfaces file during the final steps of the install in order to get NetworkManager to be used. So things are setup to fail later when NIS is installed. There appears to be a dependency problem.
I have found that the following change to /etc/init.d/nis fixes the problem for me: --- /etc/init.d/nis~ 2014-04-08 10:05:20.000000000 -0500 +++ /etc/init.d/nis 2015-04-24 09:36:11.600683425 -0500 @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: ypbind ypserv ypxfrd yppasswdd -# Required-Start: $network $portmap $remote_fs +# Required-Start: $network $portmap $remote_fs network-manager # Required-Stop: $portmap $remote_fs # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 1 Dale -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
