Fed up with the randomness, I added some commands to the client's /etc/rc.local file as a workaround to be able to test the system. #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. systemctl restart nfs-common systemctl restart autofs systemctl stop nslcd systemctl start nslcd exit 0 I rebooted the client two times and controlled /var/log/syslog each time. The first time nslcd failed to daemonize but NFS mounting home worked due to nslcd being started from rc.local; second time the workaround wouldn't have been needed cause nslcd behaved nicely from the beginning.
