Hello,

after setting up NIS on SunOs 4.1.4 with no problems

during the installation, i got 2 major problems:

1. can't print from the master server to remote printer that is on

 one of the clients.

2. can't see a client disk from the master server using automount.

any hint will be helpfull since i don't know where to start ...

I'll summarize.

CHeck the netgroups map. Check export permissions. Check

NFS daemons.

Make sure the client machine is running

   rpc.mountd -n

   automount -f /etc/auto.master

   nfsd

Is the client machine using SunOs 4.x ? If yes, try to add the master

server's IP address in the /etc/hosts file AND the master server's

hostname in the /etc/hosts.equiv file. In SunOS, only those machine

consider "trusted", have an entry in the /etc/hosts.equiv or

/etc/hosts.lpd are allow to access the printer. You may try to "man lpd"

for more detail.

more detail ?
