In my case I run nis ( dont have nisplus) and I check local accounts first then nis.
I found that compat will do the necessary with nis checking for me( perhaps nisplus as well)ie checks the + entries in /etc/passwd and check local passwd with + and override home directories shells etc.
If use it in this way, I can log in from command line with both a local and nis account ( with both a local and nfs home). For some reason there is a delay of 25 seconds approximately until the shell prompt is returned. On X it times out and locks screen. So I still have difficulties, but this might point you a bit further down the road or maybe it will work for you. Id be interested if you could post if you get it working fully.
