I have a Mac IIci running A/UX 1.1.1. I am trying to set the machine up in a heavy YP/NFS environment. It seems that A/UX is very particular about how many, and in what order, you make changes to the inittab file before rebooting. What happens is, I change the appropriate lines in inittab to enable NFS server, NFS client, and YP client, modify the appropriate files to take advantage of YP (passwd, group, etc), modify fstab to mount exported Sun partitions, and reboot. When I try to log in, it locks up. I can't even log in as root. I found one night that if I incrementally add functionality, it works. But a few days later I came in and it quit working, ala I couldn't log in on my YP account nor as root (the login eventually times out and I get the login prompt again). I have built a bnet/nfs kernel, and have the proper data in HOSTNAME and NETADDRS. Has anyone experienced this same trouble? What is the solution? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance....mail to me and I'll summarize if there is interest. Ronnie Killough ronniek@cs.tamu.edu
