From: Chris Eckert on 19 Apr 2010 17:52 hi all, i run solaris 10 u8 and i'd like to map my /export/home dir onto /home using autofs. adding a line of the form "user host:/export/home/user" to /etc/auto_master doesn't have any effect. any ideas? thanks chris -- CHRIS ECKERT eckert[at]alphanet.ch - http://www.alphanet.ch/~eckert gpg public key id 0xD08960E3

Both files in /etc. Try: #-- auto_master /net -hosts -nosuid,nobrowse /home auto_home -nobrowse #----------- #-- auto_home userabc -soft,nosuid localhost:/export/home/& userbcd -soft,nosuid someotherhost:/export/home/& # catch all, default try & -soft,nosuid bighomedirhost:/homedir001 #------------ Also remember to setup dfstab if on someotherhost. Look at it as auto_master defines the directories to manage and the files it references to hold the auto mount mapping(s). If setup properly, scales real well. Works with NIS, NIS+ and LDAP too. -- Time to ask, is our government serving us or are we serving the government? |
