We do almost exactly the same thing, except our auto.home map includes the
full path name, i.e.
prob-mp sonia:/h1/guest/prob-mp
rather than using the &. But I'm sure this is not your problem. I explicitly specify the map type in /etc/auto.master, i.e. /home yp:auto.home
but again, I doubt that has anything to do with your problem.



OK, found it. There were spaces instead of tabs between key and value. Apparently NIS
chokes on that.


Now it works.






I didn't read this whole thread soI missed what version you were running.

Many tabs/spaces bugs have been fixed in the 4.1.x tree.
