How to disable automounting on the thinclient servers: replace AUTOFS_ENABLED=true with AUTOFS_ENABLED=false in /etc/default/autofs and in /etc/fstab, add an entry for home0 and others: tjener:/skole/tjener/home0 /skole/tjener/home0 nfs defaults 0 0 and create /skole/tjener/home0. But remember to remove /skole/tjener if you later decide to enable autofs again. how to hardcode which servers are allowed to mount NFS from tjener: in /etc/exports replace @ltsp-servers(rw) with 10.0.2.10(rw) I guess you may remove mount permissions from workstations and servers as well > > But we really need to find out why nscd segfaults. > > Ack. The stated links says something like malconfigured reverse DNS ...? what says host 10.0.2.10 (if this is one of the servers you have problems with) and what says hostname ? > > Could it be that there is an error in the config-file for nscd ? > > Let me post our version: > > # /etc/nscd.conf > # (omitting commented sample lines) > # logfile /var/log/nscd.log > # threads 6 > # server-user nobody > # debug-level 0 > > enable-cache passwd yes > positive-time-to-live passwd 600 > negative-time-to-live passwd 20 > suggested-size passwd 211 I guess you have a lot more users than 211 ? You had ~100 users, didn't you ? and maybe you have som windows machine accounts as well ? The I would have set suggested-size for passwd to 2211 The same applies to suggested_size for groups. > check-files passwd yes > > enable-cache group yes > positive-time-to-live group 3600 > negative-time-to-live group 60 > suggested-size group 211 > check-files group yes > > # !!!!!WARNING!!!!!
