So you need a "sv start ypbind" before you can "sv check ypbind".
Does your check script look like this?
timeout 1 ypwhich
The manpage for ypwhich says that the command returns a name, which implies
a string inside of a shell.
Try this:
SERVERNAME=$(ypwhich)
test -n $SERVERNAME && exit 0
exit 1
...or something like that. I am working under the assumption that ypwhich
returns a blank string if there is no server.
