I'm running RH5 and trying to use automount. It seems to work fine for entries
in auto.master with type "file" but not when it is asked to start up with a
type of "yp".
autofs reads the yp auto.master map fine. The problem is that when it launches
a copy of automount with one of the entries in the yp auto.master map, nothing
happens. From reading autofs I find that what should happen is something like:
echo "/usr/sbin/automount /home yp auto.home" | sh
Even if I do this from the command line, nothing happens. So, I tried the
following:
ypcat -k auto.home > /etc/auto.home
echo "/usr/sbin/automount /home file /etc/auto.home" | sh
Now there is a copy of automount running serving /home, and automounting to /
home works fine.
I'd rather have automount work on a yp map instead of a file. Is this
possible?
