Permission denied on mnttab

[Lorenzo_13]

Hi there,

about once per hour syslog writes the following message:

automountd[772]: /etc/mnttab: Permission denied

and /etc/mnttab file has the following permissions:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 11142 Jul 16 14:33 /etc/mnttab

Does anyone know why syslog writes that messages? The box is a hp-ux 11.00

Cheers,
Lorenzo.

Hi:

You might try applying the latest NFS patch PHNE_28567.

It is prob. a NFS mount that fails trye to do a:
$ mount -a
And see then it fails, the go to the export system and look at that to make sure you have the right permissions like:

/etc/exports:

/mount -anon=2

Hi,

1. OS version is: hp-ux 11.00 (64 bit)
2. NFS patch PHNE_28567 is already in.
3. mount -a does not show errors (permission error from syslog talks about automountd :)

any other suggestion?

Thanks,
Lorenzo.

Hello Lorenzo,

I get the same error. Have you found a solution yet? If yes, what did you have to do?
