NIS Problems



Hi All,



I have a Server with a quad-core Intel Xeon processor and 4
GB of RAM that I just installed Fedora 8 X-64 on. I am trying to set it
up to work with NIS from a RHEL 4.0 Server. We just use NIS for auto
mounting users homes.



I can get everything configured properly, but I cannot
manage to make auto mount to work. I have read a lot of the info on NIS
not working in Fedora 8, but have not found a workaround/hack yet to
make this work (if someone has a work around please share).



I also have a problem with gdmgreeter crashing that
apparently this is related to having NIS enabled on the system, and
something about it starting NIS before GDM is started.



Thanks for any help you can provide



Regards Brent
