The following fixes it for me in 8.10. Basically, if you change the startup script sequence so that nis runs after NetworkManager, you should be okay.
check what sequence number the NetworkManager startup script has: > ls /etc/rc2.d/*NetworkManager /etc/rc2.d/S28NetworkManager It should be 28. If so, you need to change the order of the nis and autofs scripts to run after NetworkManager > sudo update-rc.d -f autofs remove > sudo update-rc.d -f nis remove > sudo update-rc.d nis defaults 29 71 > sudo update-rc.d autofs defaults 30 70 I -- Autofs fails to start with maps from NIS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213574 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
