Hi, I have a SUN based network. All user info (passwd, homedir) is distributed through NIS. I want to integrate a Linux box in my network allowing all my users to logon to it and get their homedirectory mounted automaticaly. I'm trying to use autofs to do this. I created
bison:/# more /etc/auto.master /home +auto_home NIS contains a map called auto_home: bison:/# ypcat -k auto_home nico immortelle:/usr/people/nico ... However when I try to access /home/nico I get bison:/# cd /home/nico bash: cd: /home/nico: No such file or directory In /var/log/daemon.log I find: Jun 28 15:14:59 bison automount[7890]: attempting to mount entry /home/nico Jun 28 15:14:59 bison automount[8733]: lookup(yp): looking up nico Jun 28 15:14:59 bison automount[8733]: lookup(yp): lookup for nico failed: No such map in server's domain It looks like automount is trying to use the map 'nico' in stead of looking up 'nico' in the map 'auto_home' ? Any ideas how I can get this to work? I'm using autofs 3.1.7-1 on Debian 'testing'. Is there any other automounter software (besides amd which doesn't seem to understand the SUN automounter map) Thanks in advance, Nico --------------------------------------------------------- "It has been said that there are only two businesses that refer to customers as users: illegal drug trade and the computer industry." --------------------------------------------------------- Nico De Ranter Sony Service Center (SDCE/NEE-B) Sint Stevens Woluwestraat 55 (Rue de Woluwe-Saint-Etienne) 1130 Brussel (Bruxelles), Belgium, Europe, Earth Telephone: +32 2 724 86 41 Telefax: +32 2 726 26 86 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
