Just as a matter of interest, did automount already transparently use lofs for local mounts in SunOS 4.x? Is it really possible to wedge Solaris by automounting an NFS file system on the same system that exports it? -- Stefaan A Eeckels -- "The most common of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true.

I'm not sure it did; it seems to be using a /tmp_mnt hierarchy and not the "use lofs". >Is it really possible to wedge Solaris by automounting an NFS file >system on the same system that exports it? You can't easily do it (autofs won't do it); there used to be an issue with UFS & NFS. I think it may have been fixed. Casper -- Expressed in this posting are my opinions.

You can get close to it by doing a network specification with a 32-bit subnet mask, though. But you have to stick the /32 on the end. > To resolve the name resolution issue: On the NFS server, use the > command "getent hosts <client_IP>" and ensure that the first returned > result is the one present in the netgroup.
