[SLUG] mount : RPC : timed out problem

[Nicholas Reese]

Hi all,   Using Redhat 7.2   First of all, thanks to Karl who helped a lot with my NIS problems – solved now due to rebuilding the management server ( ah, the power of root to totally stuff things before you even know they are stuffed… )   Just an aside – got Telstra ADSL working with Smoothwall – bit of a no brainer in the end.   I have a management machine on the network that is the NIS and NFS server – no problems here as I am loading the client machines over the network with NFS and NIS works absolutely peachy with 2 of the 5 client machines. The other 3 machines just won’t automount server:/home and won’t bind to the NIS server – all config files are the same – all machines are exactly the same hardware.   ???? Any ideas. I couldn’t find any answers anywhere else.   rgds,   Nick Reese   Linux earns mindshare, Microsoft buys it...
