NIS

["Roberto Mason" <roberto rmasonfamily info>]

I don't know quite where to begin. I've set my Samba server which is working
quite well. I'm in the process of setting up my NIS  server. The NIS server
seems to be working. My problem is the NFS server. Everytime I log on to a
particular machine with a user defined on my NIS  server, I log on, but get
the message unable to chdir to home directory /home/<user>. I check to see
if the directory is mounted in the /proc/mount on the machine I'm logging
on, but its not there.

my /etc/exports on my NIS server contains the following

/home	*.int.robertomason.pointclark.net

my DNS server is working properly, I'm able to ping my various machines.

I'm including here is the nsswitch.conf file. I tweaked it a bit, changing a
couple of parameters from nispus to nis, notable aliases and publickey.

with rpcinfo -p, nsf 2 and 3 are working.

If someone could give me an idea of here to look, I'd appreciate it.
