Nope. Pretty sad. I guess no one at Canonical / Ubuntu cares much about legacy UNIX environments based on NIS. RedHat, SuSE, etc. have had this working out of the box for years and years. It worked on Ubuntu, too, until network manager came along.
What I do on my systems is create a new service that runs late and simply waits for NIS to be up, then restarts autofs. I've attached it. See the comments for how to install it. This is a bogus smelly hack but it works. ** Attachment added: "reautofs" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28074504/reautofs -- Autofs fails to start with maps from NIS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213574 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
