Configuring clients users home directory in NIS using Solaris 10
Posted on August 13, 2008
In this setup, my server also serves as the Network Information Service(NIS) server and NFS indirect sharing for user’s home directory.
Checking my server’s NFS shares
Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.10 Generic January 2005
-bash-3.00# share
- /jumpstart ro,anon=0 “”
- /installer ro,anon=0 “”
- /export/home rw “”
-bash-3.00#
My passwd file as an input file for NIS Makefile
-bash-3.00# more /etc/nis_etc/passwd
chris:x:100:1::/home/chris:/bin/bash
Auto_master file
-bash-3.00# more /etc/auto_master
#
# Copyright 2003 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.
# Use is subject to license terms.
#
# ident “@(#)auto_master 1.8 03/04/28 SMI”
#
# Master map for automounter
#
+auto_master
/net -hosts -nosuid,nobrowse
#/home auto_home -nobrowse
/home auto.home
Auto_home file. server1 is the NIS and NFS server
-bash-3.00# more /etc/auto_home
#
# Copyright 2003 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.
# Use is subject to license terms.
#
# ident “@(#)auto_home 1.6 03/04/28 SMI”
#
# Home directory map for automounter
#
+auto_home
chris server1:/export/home/chris

Configure NIS maps using ‘make’
-bash-3.00# pwd
/var/yp
-bash-3.00# /usr/ccs/bin/make
Checking auto.master and auto.home maps
-bash-3.00# ypcat -k auto.master
+auto_master
/home auto.home
/net -hosts -nosuid,nobrowse
-bash-3.00# ypcat -k auto.home
+auto_home
chris server1:/export/home/chris
Configure /etc/nsswitch.conf automount of your clients
automount: files nis
