HP-UX NIS auto_master with auto_home

Dears,
Good day,

 

I'm trying to build auto_master and auto_home map pages. I created auto_home and added it to my NIS now there is auto.home map but the issue is I cannot configure it. I need to configure it only on NIS master. So, I thought about the following:

 

On NIS Master

/etc/NIS/auto_master

/rhome +auto.home -nobrowse

 

/etc/NIS/auto_home

* NISSERVER:/export/home/&

 

--- but this is not working

 

the only workaround is :

 

/etc/NIS/auto_home

* NISSERVER:/export/home/&

 

on Client :

 

/etc/auto_master

/rhome auto_home -nobrowse

 

/etc/auto_home

+auto.home

 

---- but this will make me do it on all UNIX / Linux NIS clients

 

Is there any way to do it from NIS ??

 

Thanks
