ACK. My intention ist to configure my laptops to choose either:

- connect to a nis network
- connect to a a nisless network


This I manged flawlessly via netenv. As nis ist started before any
networkmanger like wicd or nm, there is no way to slowdown nis to
wait until network is avail. A non providing nisserver caused by no
network slows down a machine useless at all.
