I posted a couple days ago about a pcnfs problem... I still have the
problem, But would like to point out a couple more details and
try still to get a bit more aid!! I have gotten a great deal so far,
but my problem stills persists. I'll post my original problem.
I am running pcnfsd on my NIS server, a sun 4/370... The versions
of pcnfs that I run are.. 3.0.1, 3.5 and 4.0. I can log in via
net name on my pc'c running 3.0.1.. that DON"T use yp.. BUT
on machines running 3.5 I can't I get a user authentication
error everytime. I had a phone call from one individual that
had a problem with UID's of less than 101.. I have tried changing
this ... to no avail... SO I'm still on the hunt for a solution..
Here's the original message..
