If the /home is mounting point than this will not work.
/home should be the directory only.
Just say df will tell you the things.
you entry in automounter is rong.
need some thing like
on /etc/auto.home i have this;
* nfsserver:/home/&
will work now.
Please let us know it this work or not.

Hello,
If I am understanding you correctly, you want to edit the automount field
in
/etc/nsswitch.conf to read nis first. I may be wrong, and I'm sure someone
will correct me if that is the case.

Subject: NIS home automount feature
Howdy,
I setup a test NIS domain that i'd like to test the home automounting
feature so basically i done this;
-Setup the NIS server and domain, make changes on Makefile to include
auto.master, auto.home
-had the client successfully connected to new NIS domain.
on NIS/NFS server i added this on /etc/auto.master file;
/home /etc/auto.home
on /etc/auto.home i have this;
* nfsserver:/home
Now my problem is, how would i force/setup the client that it would use
the
auto{master,home} files on NIS server rather than using the locally same
files, pointers and correction greatly appreciated.
