Hi Jan, > I installed this new computer from scratch via debian netinstall CD.
I assume you are installing Debian Etch, i.e. the last stable release. > Reason seems to be, that first /etc/rc2.d/S19autofs and afterwards > /etc/rc2.d/S19nis is executed and hence no nis maps are available to > autofs. Etch still suffered from the boot order sequence problem - see Debian bug #400952 for the full discussion. Briefly summarized, autofs cannot move to 20 because of its common co-installation with apache (which also starts at 20 and might rely on automounted directories) - if this is not the case for you, that's the easiest solution. The current Debian development has moved portmap to S17 and nis to S18 to eliminate the problem the other way round. Thanks for your report! Regards, Jan
