I don't know about autofs since I don't use it. But I admin a set of 3 sparc linux servers which are using NIS/NFS. The NIS master is running on a Sparc LX, running Debian/Slink, kernel 2.2.9 (it is also a client). The two clients are UltraSparc's running Debian/Potato, kernel 2.2.13. Looks to me from the error that you are having a configuration problem. Is this NIS master you are pointing to a Solaris one? If so what version of Solaris, and what type of system. -- -----------=======-=-======-=========-----------=====------------=-=------ / Ben Collins -- ...on that fantastic voyage... -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ' `---=========------=======-------------=-=-----=-===-======-------=--=---'
