CentOS - Apr 2010 - [off-topic] RHEL6 and NIS/YP

Hi

Did anyone managed to configure RHEL 6 beta to authenticate using NIS?

During the installation the option to use NIS as authentication method 
is disable. When I tried to install with yum, I got the following message:
Installed size: 222 k
Is this ok [y/N]: y
Downloading Packages:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/rhel/beta/6/i386/os/Packages/yp-tools-2.9-8.1.el6.i686.rpm:
[Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - ""
Trying other mirror.

Trying other mirror.

wWhy not take this to the rhel6 beta list and talk with people there ? 
that would be *much* more appropriate than here.
