Using NIS aliases in Sendmail
The default configuration for sendmail on RedHat family systems is to not use NIS for aliases. You can't over-ride this behavior by tweaking /etc/nsswitch.conf like you can on any sensible system, you have to modify the AliasFile= parameter in your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf:# location of alias file O AliasFile=/etc/aliases,nis:mail.aliases@YOUR-NIS-ZONE
define(`ALIAS_FILE', `/etc/aliases:mail.aliases@YOUR-NIS-ZONE')dnl

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
