Network solaris 10 autofs - how to mount /net (hosts)

Hello Everyone,

I am working with Solaris 10 autofs feature. On the server (and client) in /etc/auto_master I have this entry:

/net -hosts -nosuid,nobrowse

On the server, I have shared out /var/tmp, started the nfs server and issued the shareall command. When I issue share I can see this filesystem shared out.

On the client, I did the automount -v and it says "no mounts and no unmounts". When I ls /net directory, there are no contents.

What other steps do I need to take to be able to see on the client /var/tmp the server is sharing?

I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

Have a great day!

Hi, I know that this is probably quite a tiresome issue, but I can't get autofs to work. I'm using udev rules to create symbolic links below /dev, that always point to the same devices regardless of which port they're plugged in. So, autofs's config files look like this for me: ... (0 Replies)
