And it's failing in the same way? ("unmatched host"?) Like I say, I suppose my next step would be to get out the nfs-utils source and figure out where it's failing (probably somewhere in auth_authenticate_newcache -> get_client_hostname -> client_compose -> client_check -> check_netgroup()). If it's reporting "unmatched host", and if you can see it making the right NIS request (and getting the right response), then I'm out of other debugging ideas.... --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
