amd (automounter) news group...Where are they!

Post by Brian Sincla » Wed, 23 Dec 1992 10:06:29



Hello all, I am looking for a pointer to any news group where
the amd automounter is being discussed.  I need some help with
passing variables into the maps.

Any help here would be appreciated.

As far as I know, there is no news group for it, but there certainly


the list manager so.

Please do **NOT** send such a message to the list itself. It's just a
waste of bandwidth to copy such a message to thousands of people all
over the globe.

1. amd (am-utils, automounter) -- need help

I need help in an amd/NIS configuration:

Server

 users defined only on server and distributed to clients via NIS.

 acx01  /home filesystem with user home directories (~200) named
        /home/a101 /home/a102 /home/a103 etc...

Clients

 acx02
 acx03
 acx04
 acx05

I want to have all user directories automounted when users log into
the clients (and server as well of course).

I want to have a map

[ home ]
map_name = amd.home

My questions/assumptions:

I assume amd must run on every computer in the network.

NFS server has to run on server and /etc/exports must export /home on
server to the clients.

/etc/amd.conf on server should contain map_type=file

while

/etc/amd.conf on clients should contain map_type=nis

How does amd.home have to look like on server and clients?

(it's Redhat Linux 6.1 FWIW).
