Bill Paul a00f731551 In environments with multiple NIS servers (a master and several slaves)
one ypbind broadcast can yield several responses. This can lead to
some confusion: the syslog message from ypbind will indicate a rebinding
to the first server that responds, but we may subsequently change our
binding to another server when the other responses arrive. This results
in ypbind reporting 'server OK' to one address and ypwhich reporting a
binding to another.

The behavior of the rpc_received() function has been changed to prevent
this: subsequent responses received after a binding has already been
established are ignored. Rebinding gratuitously each time we get a
new response is silly anyway.

Also backed out the non-fix I made in my last ypbind commit. (Pass
me the extra large conical hat, please.)

(At some point I'm going to seriously re-work ypbind and the _yp_dobind()
library function to bring them in line with SunOS's documented behavior:
binding requests are supposed to be 'client-driven.' The _yp_dobind()
function should be responsible for retrying connections in response to
calls from client programs rather than having ypbind broadcasting
continously until a server responds. The current setup works okay in
normal operation, but we broadcast far too often than we should.)

This install procedure is ALPHA code, and        `--{__________)
may very possibly *DESTROY* the contents of your
ENTIRE DISK!  Please do not proceed with this installation
unless you've adequately backed up your data first!

If any errors occur during this installation, you can see them
by toggling over to the alternate screen - type ALT-F2 to switch
over, ALT-F1 to switch back to the install screen.  The debugging
output on the second screen may be very valuable to us in understanding
your bug report, so please be sure to take note of it when reporting
any failures in the installation!  Thanks!

Menus and scrolling output windows may be traversed with the arrow
and Page Up/Page Down keys.  To suspend the installation at any point,
hit ESC twice.  Hitting TAB will move the focus to different controls.
If you've ever dealt with a DOS installation, you'll know how to deal
with this.
