2cents, cause I could get idmap'ing to work yesterday. I looked in all the wrong places. I had a dup ipaddress in the subnet and idmap would just show nobody for everyone. Doesnt sound like your problem. I uses nis a while ago also and know nsswitch.conf or some such can change the lookup ordering, could be a easy way to test using /etc/passwd vs nis.
