In /etc/init.d/nfs change
# Number of servers to be started by default
RPCNFSDCOUNT=8
to what what ever you like.

In /etc/init.d/ypserv (or similar)
chnage the 
#chkconfig: nnn xx yy
chnage nnn to 2345
then run
chkconfig --del ypserv         #delete current startup options
chkconfig --add ypserv         #make you new ones
chkconfig --list ypserv        #show when it will now start

I don't know if nis needs a client to alos be started, if so then so the same
to its init.d script

HTH

Yours Tony.
