Do you have anything on your system that depends on rpcbind running?
The current version of the rpcbind package is socket-activated; perhaps
the service isn't started because you have nothing installed that
actually uses it?

I re-installed the lasted 16.04 beta. Be default the rpc-statd service
is not enabled, I enabled and rebooted, same problem rpcbind does not
start and neither does the nis service. If I manualy start with
systemctl start rpc-statd then rpcbind and rpcbind.statd start. If I
systemctl start nis it do
We use nis ybind which is started out of /etc/init.d/nis which fails
because rpcbind is not running.

Title:
rpcbind does not start on boot unde
Meant to type "ypbind", so I installed nfs-kernel-server and now rpcbind
and ypbind start. Hate to install nfs-kernel-server on all our desktops
and servers that do not need it but they do need ypbind. Thanks for your
help.

We are on the right track, I have tried so many things I need to reload
the system to reset the default config for everything. Our 14.04 systems
run rpc.statd but not all the other nfs stuff. So maybe enabling that
service will be a work around, that is it will cause rpcbind to start.
I will need

Ok, but rpcbind should start as soon as nis asks for it.
What does 'systemctl status rpcbind.socket' show on boot (i.e. before you'
rpcbind.socket is active, nis fails to start because it cannot contact
the rpcbind server so I guess it is not using the socket to communicate.
Reading the ypbind and ypbind.conf man pages does not have any info or
options on registering with rpcbind.

- rpcbind does not start on boot under systemd
+ ypbind not able to socket activate rpcbind under systemd, fails at boot
unless something else starts rpcbind
