You might want to make sure it's actually running... look for the automount process, and make sure that you have valid automount maps (either local files, or nsswitch.conf setup to pull automount from NIS.)
In my limited NIS testing, I've found that mounting your /home/foo directory from NFS (automount or otherwise) can be painful if you are running a big fat desktop like KDE 3. KDE writes a ton of stuff there when it starts and that can make initial startup very, very slow unless you have a fast network and fast computers. Now, I've only tested this with a small number of computers and not for an long time, so YMMV. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Sing blue silver Got spam?
