I think the grpid option is to have the filesystem support BSD directory group-id semantics. I don't think I particularly need this support per se, but I am automounting filesystems from a diverse environment involving numerous *NIX systems and the NIS automounter maps are outside of my control. An example of some of the maps: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ypcat auto_master ... auto_email -rw,hard,intr,grpid,noquota,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 auto_tomahawk -rw,intr,noquota,soft,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 auto_eagan -rw,intr,soft,grpid,noquota ... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ypcat auto_email thistle:/var/mail -rw,hard,intr,grpid,noquota estes:/var/mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ypcat auto_eagan -rw,hard,intr thistle:/export/data/& -rw,soft,intr thistle:/export/data/issrc/sw-sunos5.x -rw,soft,intr thistle:/export/data/issrc -rw,soft,intr thistle:/export/data/issrc/sw-linux ... Perhaps the 1:1.1.0-4 version was filtering out the grpid option so that the mount still took place. It appears that bugs 376089, 377076, and 376839 involve the same kind of problem. -- Dale -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
