- soul is the hostname of the master NIS server for a given
domain
- kitchen is the hostname of the slave NIS server for a given
domain
- bento is the hostname of the NFS server
- nfs is an alias (
CNAME) for the NFS server
NFS configuration, logged on bento
Just add the wanted share in the export list on server bento.
On Sun Solaris, it is done as follow:
# cat << EOF >> /etc/dfs/dfstab
share -F nfs -o rw -d "Applications repository, NFS shared" /export/bento/apps
EOF
The file system /export/bento/apps must already be
available.
Start the nfsd service (and associated daemons:
mountd, statd and lockd) if
necessary:
# /etc/init.d/nfs.server start
Or simply export the new share:
# shareall
NIS configuration, logged on soul
Because all of the automounted NFS clients (in particular Solaris, AIX and
GNU/Linux) know how to use automount maps shared via the NIS
protocol, the centralized auto_apps (SYSV style) map
resides on the master NIS server, soul.
Since this is a new map to add, there is a little more to do here.
Create the map in the DIR (in NIS parlance) directory:
# touch /etc/ivyp/auto_apps
# ci -i /etc/ivyp/auto_apps
/*
* Description message: "Automounter map for the applications repository,
* NFS shared.".
*/
# co -l /etc/yp/auto_apps
# cat << EOF > /etc/ivyp/auto_apps
* -rw,hard,bg,intr nfs:/export/bento/apps/${OSNAME}/${CPU}/${NATISA}/${OSREL}/?
EOF
# ci -u /etc/ivyp/auto_apps
The RCS commands may (and must) be used through the
ivv.sh wrapper script.
Teach the customized NIS infrastructure (based on GNU tools, not the native
ones) about the new map:

At this stage, the new map must be first manually transferred on the slave
NIS server.
Create the corresponding map files (*.dir and
*.pag ) only, using:
# cd /etc/ivyp
# gmake -C /var/yp NOPUSH="YES"
Log in on the slave server (a Sun system), for example kitchen
:
# /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypxfr -h soul auto.apps
# ls -l /var/yp/`domainname`/auto.apps.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 25 18:10 /var/yp/`domainname`/auto.apps.dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1024 Aug 25 18:10 /var/yp/`domainname`/auto.apps.pag
Note: You can know which hostname is(are) currently set up as slave
server(s) using:
# cd /var/yp/`domainname`
# makedbm -u ypservers
YP_LAST_MODIFIED 1072719185
YP_MASTER_NAME soul
kitchen
timal
Then, on the master server, really push the map this
time:
# cd /etc/ivyp
# gmake -C /var/yp
Now, the new mount point and sub-tree must be ready and available to all
your properly configured clients, as found in the following
online documents:
