Hi all,

I am trying to integrate the first 10.6 machine into our unix network. NIS 
client is working. I am now trying to mount the home directory of our Solaris 
server to /home on the MacOSX client. I have made a corresponding mount entry 
in DiskUtility.app, actually two entries, one for /home and one for /Blobs. The 
/Blobs entry is working as expected. The /home entry is not. After rebooting 
the machine /home is empty. I can manually do

        mount -t nfs<ipaddress>:/home /home

to get the home dirs mounted, but this does not seems to be very stable and reliable. I 
was also wondering why the director /home already existed on the newly instaled MacOSX 
machine. On earlier MacOSX version I had to create this directory first. I tried rmdir 
/home and got a "device is busy" error. What is /home used for on MAcOSX 10.6?

How can I mount my home dirs on /home?

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Andreas

        I myself use

*       -rw,intr,rdirplus,tcp,bg,vers=3 NFS_SERVER:/home/&

in /etc/auto_home, after commenting out the

+auto_home

line
