[TriLUG] NFS,Autofs,NIS and FC2

First, thanks to Jon and Matthew, so far I did get some info out of
systems.


The user is not a local user, and the mount point exists, and I can
mount things after login just fine, but my issue seems to be YP.  Here's
the last couple of entries in the /var/log/messages

Jun  9 06:34:55 www ypserv[1607]: refused connect from 192.168.0.105:975
to procedure ypproc_all (flanagannc,auto.master;-4)
Jun  9 06:36:16 www ypserv[1607]: refused connect from 192.168.0.105:955
to procedure ypproc_all (flanagannc,x;-4)


This has at least gotten me to the point where I believe the "problem"
to be NIS security.  I don't know why it would be an issue with the new
systems, and not the old ones but...


Thanks for the help so far!



Kevin
