Dear Ian ,
Thx for the instant reply . I have tried in the same way you told . I am in an
environment where we have both solaris and linux clients while nis master is a solaris
box .Maps come from NIS . Does this ghost option ( /home /etc/auto.home --ghost )
given in the master server cause any trouble for the existing solaris clients .
Any work around would be highly appreciated .
