[TriLUG] NFS,Autofs,NIS and FC2

[Jon Carnes]

Is "kevin" also a local user on the FC2 system? 

Do the mount points exist? 

Can you manually mount the drive after you login?  If not then it's
probably a overly paranoid security issue where the user is not allowed
to force an NFS mount.

I assume that you've tested the NIS data using ypcat and letting it list
our the passwd and group files.

Hope that is somewhat helpful - Jon
