Here is the requested information I am able to get maps using ypcat -k auto.home & ypcat auto.xyz but not by auto_home & auto_xyz(gives error as server does not have these maps).
The kernel is Linux 2.4.18-3 version & autofs is 1.4. The only thing which i tried was to specify the maps in auto.master, more /etc/auto.master home auto.home -nosuid,nodev xyz auto.xyz -nosuid.nodev Thanks -dinesh ---------- Original Message ----------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Dinesh Parmar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu, 15 Apr 2004 20:44:20 +0800 (WST) Subject: Re: [autofs] Autofs > On Wed, 14 Apr 2004, Dinesh Parmar wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > Problem: Not able to mount NIS maps from NIS server(Solaris) to Linux(Red Hat > > 7.3) > > > > My Network Schema > > > > NIS Server: SunOS 5.6 > > NIS Client : Mix of Sunos & HPUX & Linux machine(Red Hat Linux 7.3). > > > > Problem: I am trying to mount NIS maps from NIS Server(auto_home & auto_xyz) > > mounted on Linux.
