I think many newer environments are switching from NIS to ActiveDirectory (in Windows deployments) or LDAP, for both user account info as well as things like automount. I've never used a setup like that so I can't say whether it works better or not with networkmanager. Certainly it's ridiculous

Hi Paul. I was able to work around this - and the key is your comment: It worked on Ubuntu, too, until network manager came along. I uninstalled NM (apt-get remove). Then manually configured my eth0 for DHCP and it works like a champ. I did add that -no-dbus to the YPBINDARGS in

I have tried all of the workarounds I have seen so far: - add scripts to restart autofs in if-up.d/if-down.d - add -no-dbus to YPBINDARGS - change the order in /etc/rc2.d (at least 2 varieties of this one) None of these work for me. Is there a known, reliable workaround for this yet?

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

The following fixes it for me in 8.10. Basically, if you change the startup script sequence so that nis runs after NetworkManager, you should be okay. check what sequence number the NetworkManager startup script has: ls /etc/rc2.d/*NetworkManager /etc/rc2.d/S28NetworkManager It should be 28.

It is a more general issue : autofs with network maps tends to not start correctly with network manager. As a workaround, I use a script in /etc/network/if-up.d : 8 #!/bin/sh AUTOFS=/etc/init.d/autofs if [ ! -x $AUTOFS ]; then exit 0 fi $AUTOFS start

I don't think adding this to if-up.d is robust. There could easily be a timing issue here where the facility that distributes your maps, which also cannot be started until the interface comes up, will not be started before the autofs script asks for them. For example, with NIS, after the
