This smells like a packet filter somewhere; eg, on your laptop or your
laptop trying to talk to a a corporate map whilst you're not at work or
on a VPN, so things time out because the corporate firewall is dropping
these packets into a black-hole.

With MacOS 10.4.11 in a setup not using YP/NIS/NIS+ I get:
% ypcat passwd.byname
No such map passwd.byname. Reason: Request arguments bad
So since I doubt that 10.5 adds *more* NIS, I somewhat suspect that NIS
was configured on your system and times out when it can't talk to the
servers.
