My question was:

The answer was to buy the NISKIT (Naming Services Transition Kit)
 from SUN.(about ~125$).There is also a patch for this : 101363-06

For who is interesting I received also files to setup Solaris 2.x
as slave NIS on Binary Compatibility Mode.
Thank you to everyone for the answers :

I am running NIS master on 4.1.3 and a slave with Slowaris 2.4 I had to
get version of ypserv that would run on solaris and then added ypserv to
the init.d directory. Be sure to run ypserv before ypbind This is what my
/etc/init.d/rc file looks like:

$YPDIR/ypserv > /dev/null 2>&1
echo " ypserv\c"
$YPDIR/ypbind -broadcast > /dev/null 2>&1
echo " ypbind\c"

I put ypserv in /usr/lib/netsvc/yp directory
Also make the directory /var/yp/`domainname`

This should work.
