I am having a problem using the automount'er under Ultrix 4.0/4.1 to automagically mount NFS directories on an RS/6000 running AIX 3.1.5. The RS/6000 has, say, a paritition /u exported and i can mount it via NFS by doing: mount /u@spiff.erc /mnt from an Ultrix machine, either V4.0 or 4.1 of Ultrix. No problem... But... using automount (invoked with 'automount /net -hosts') i get a '/net/spiff.erc/u: Permission denied' when trying to 'cd /net/spiff.erc/u'. I've tried this same sequence from a Sun Sparcstation running SunOS 4.1.1B and it works fine. And I can mount directories from the Sun box on the Ultrix machines fine too. What (if anything) I am missing? Is there some known problem with NFS between an RS/6000's and Ultrix machines? art stine sr network engineer clarkson u abstine@sun.soe.clarkson.edu (oh by the way, when putting the -T option on the automount, i get the same status from automount, up to the point where it fails: Ultrix -> AIX: cd /net/spiff.erc.clarkson.edu/u/abstine GETATTR call(fh=[440, 675462356, 4]) GETATTR return(stat=NFS_OK, type=2, mode=40555, nlink=1, uid=0, gid=0,size=512, blocksize=512, rdev=0, blocks=1, fsid=0, fileid=4, atime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 199 1, mtime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 1991, ctime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 1991) LOOKUP call(fh=[440, 675462356, 4], name=spiff.erc.clarkson.edu) LOOKUP return(stat=NFSERR_ACCES) /net/spiff.erc.clarkson.edu/u/abstine: Permission denied Ultrix -> Ultrix # cd /net/sequoia.cad/user GETATTR call(fh=[440, 675462356, 4]) GETATTR return(stat=NFS_OK, type=2, mode=40555, nlink=1, uid=0, gid=0,size=512, blocksize=512, rdev=0, blocks=1, fsid=0, fileid=4, atime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 199 1, mtime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 1991, ctime=Tue May 28 16:25:56 1991) LOOKUP call(fh=[440, 675462356, 4], name=sequoia.cad) LOOKUP return(stat=NFS_OK, fh=[440, 675462356, 7], type=5, mode=120777, nlink=1, uid=0, gid=0,size=24, blocksize=512, rdev=0, blocks=1, fsid=0, fileid=7, atime= Tue May 28 16:26:28 1991, mtime=Tue May 28 16:26:28 1991, ctime=Tue May 28 16:26 :28 1991) READLINK call(fh=[440, 675462356, 7]) READLINK return(stat=NFS_OK, data=/tmp_mnt/net/sequoia.cad)
