Re: [autofs] Autofs problem (migration from sun to linux )
Dear Ian , Thank you for your help . But unfortunately it did not solve my problem . I run autofs modular . So I removed existing one and compiled the autofs4 tar file and also compiled the patch module(autofs4-2.4-module-20031201.tar.bz2 ) . It got installed , I restarted autofs but no luck . Most of my maps comes from NIS . still I cant see any directories . Kindly tell me is there something else which I need to check . awaiting your reply, rgds Surya . - Original Message - From: Ian Kent [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sun, 7 Mar 2004 19:21:50 +0800 (WST) To: surya [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [autofs] Autofs problem (migration from sun to linux ) On Sun, 7 Mar 2004, surya wrote: Dear All , We are migrating from sun to linux .

Re: [autofs] Autofs problem (migration from sun to linux )
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 . rgds surya - Original Message - From: Ian Kent [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2004 20:32:51 +0800 (WST) To: surya [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [autofs] Autofs problem (migration from sun to linux ) On Sun, 14 Mar 2004, surya wrote: Dear Ian , Thank you for your help .

I guess you untared it edited the macros in Makefile.conf to point to the source tree of the running kernel then: make make install That's all you should need to do for the kernel module. You also need to add an option to the master map like /home /etc/auto.home --ghost Ian rgds surya -- __ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.

[autofs] Summary of autofs migration from Sun to Linux (resolved)
Dear Ian / All , First of all Thank you so much Ian for your time to resolve our problem . Summary is just download 2 files from the below site http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/v4/ download the below files autofs-4.1.0.tar.gz autofs4-2.4-module-20031201.tar.gz 1) remove your existing autofs rpm ( if applicable) 2) untar the autofs-4.1.0.tar.gz and compile it ( ./configure, make ,make install) 3) back up your previous module if you want (/lib/modules/kernel-dir/kernel/fs/autofs/autofs.o) 4) Untar autofs4-2.4-module-20031201.tar.gz then do (adjust your kernelpath macro(read the README) , make ,make install) After this need to add an option to the master map like this /home /etc/auto.home --ghost ( /home /etc/auto.home --ghost ) You can also pass this --ghost option in the /etc/init.d/autofs file . There is an option in this file called daemonoptions append the entry eg: daemonoptions='--ghost' This will append the option to the automount daemon . 5) Restart your autofs service . That will solve the problem . rgds Surya Prabhakar N , Technical Specialist , Strategy Deployment Team , Wipro Limited , Bangalore - India. -- __ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.
