Does anyone have any suggestions? Burt Carter -----Original Message----- From: k12osn-bounces@redhat.com [<A href="mailto:k12osn-bounces@redhat.com]">mailto:k12osn-bounces@redhat.com]</A> On Behalf Of Burt Carter Sent: Friday, February 25, 2005 11:07 AM To: k12OSN@redhat.com Subject: [K12OSN] mounting home directories I have installed ncpfs and the pam_auth module. After I set everything up following the directions given here, I was unable to authenticate. I left and came back about 30mins later and it worked?? Is this normal? It appears to be working now with the following exceptions. When users login I get the following output from /var/log/secure: "user student.hsms.boe had trouble mounting hsms-home/user on /home/student/nwhome" The student home directory on the Novell 6 server is actually: "hsms-home/user/hs/students/student" It appears to be attempting to mount the wrong directory to home and fails to mount. I was unable to follow the last step(step 4) in the K12LTSP howtoz.net document because /usr/bin/ncpumount and /usr/bin/ncpmount did not exist. THe link I created in /usr/local/bin/ is broken due to this. Could this be causing the problem? Also, I see the following error in the /var/log/secure output occasionally: "WaitPid: Fatal: no child process" Thanks, Burt Carter ________________________________________________________________ Sent via the WebMail system at mail.jchs.com This e-mail message and all attachments transmitted with it may contain legally privileged and confidential information intended solely for the use of the addressee.
