Re: automounter & NIS
hi ya oren
simple tests...
- make sure /home is exported to be rw to your deb box...
- am assuming you want to write into your home dir
- on your deb box...make sure you can at least manually mount it
deb# mkdir /mnt/test
deb# mount solaris:/home /mnt/test
- i use autofs...( for simple automount stuff ) ( no NIS/yp etc
compatibility needs )
deb# cat /etc/auto.master
#.... comments ..
#
# mkdir /.autofs
/.autofs /etc/auto.home --timeout 600
#
# end of file
deb# cat /etc/auto.home
#.... comments ...
#
home.NFS -fstype=nfs,intr,soft solaris:/home
#
# end of file
- your automounted new home dir is /.autofs/home.NFS
#
deb# ls -laR /.autofs/home.NFS/<your_home>
deb# ln -s /.autofs/home.NFS /where-ever-your-want-home-to-be
-
- last possible gotcha.....
- you might need to specify rpc-1 or rpc-2 depending on
- which protocol is used by linux kernel vs solaris kernel
- - you define the option if needed
- ( search the web ( "rpc-1 rpc-2" for options syntax )
