NFS Mount Problem

sycncs — Fri, 31 Jan 2003 04:31:42 GMT

Dear Folks

I need your help and advice on this.
From Server A, I am suppose to have NFS mounted Server B:/Users/*
However, I can only see a few of the directories on Server A under /users. Server B, however has a hundred over directories. Why is it that I cannot see the rest?
Automountd, nfsd are all running.

What could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Looks like you have indirect maps defined. Try

cd /users/userx

on Server A.

Where userx was not there in the directory listing of the nfs mounted directory /users on server A.

Automounted directories will appear once you start accessing them.
