Try:
use strict;
use warnings;
at the top of your code to see some warnings / errors with what you posted.
I don't have a NIS server to test against, but I'm willing to bet if your credentials are correct, the following (untested) may work:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::NIS;
use Authen::Simple::NIS;
my $default_domain = Net::NIS::yp_get_default_domain();
my $nis = Authen::Simple::NIS->new(domain => $default_domain);
if ($nis->authenticate("user", "testpass")) {
print "Success\n"
}
print "done\n";

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
