Hi,
I've just upgraded our redhat 6.1 box used to test Mentor/Synopsis (chip design software) to redhat 6.2 (as spec'd by the vendor). When 6.1 was running, I was able to get the automounter working, so my solaris home accounts were mounted local.
Now with 6.2, I can't get it to work. Heres what I did.
1. Comment out auto.misc in the /etc/auto.master (this is the example automount).
2. Add the line" /home yp:auto.home (as defined in the manpage on auto.master. I want to get a NIS map for the home dirs).
3. run /etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs restart
This is what gets spit out in the log files:Jan 31 15:50:19 stp806574b automount[901]: starting automounter version
3.1.4, path = /home, maptype = yp:auto.home, mapname = none
Jan 31 15:50:19 stp806574b automount[901]: cannot open lookup module
yp:auto.home (/usr/lib/autofs//lookup_yp:auto.home.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
Looking in the logfile, it is not splitting on the :, it should be maptype=yp and mapname =auto.home
If I change it to read: /home /etc/auto.home, and create the auto.home file by typing ypcat auto.home>/etc/auto.home, It works (until I try to cd into the dir, but thats another story). The maptype=file and mapname=auto.home.
Tx in advance!
