Hello, i'm in solaris 2.6 using NIS+
When i type :
#ls /net
The answer list all hosts in hosts table

When i type :
#ls /home
The answer list all users in passwd table

In solaris 2.5, only mounted active autofs (ie someone had type cd
/net/host or cd /home/username) were shown.
How can i do to get the same answer in Sol 2.6 ?

The default line for /net in /etc/auto_master file is:

/net            -hosts          -nosuid,nobrowse

You, or somebody else, probably removed nobrowse option.

The thought crossed my mind that using DNS, ls /net
should list all the machines in the world...  :-)

That is not the case - it appears to list machines in the local domain
(whatever you have defined in resolv.conf).

The problem is the 2.6 -nobrowse switch in your /etc/auto_master file
has not been propagated to the NIS+ auto_master.org_dir table.  Make it
so (niscat auto_master.org_dir looks like your /etc/auto_master file)
and "ls /net" will do what you want.

Although "files" comes before "nisplus" in the default /etc/nsswitch.nisplus
file, the /etc/auto_master file has "+auto_master" first so it goes to NIS+
anyway (and thus does not see the "-nobrowse" options for /net and /home).
