Hello -
A bit off-topic, but y'all seem to have answer to everything. :-)
We are in transition of moving users from an E450 Solaris 8 fileserver
to an Apple OSX 10.3.2 fileserver, but are running into problems with
users who are using GNOME. They are finding that gconfd hangs and are
unable to login (getting a black screen). Also, it seems that java
processes are having difficulty interacting with gconfd (using both CDE
and GNOME).
The user's home mount maps are being served up via NIS (and using autofs).
The mount maps look something like this:
username -nosuid rocknroll.utexas.edu.:/Volumes/home:&
On OSX, the user's home sharing for NFS is set to subnet
(10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0) and all the boxes are otherwise unchecked (no root
quash, etc).
Has anyone else seen this behavior and know of a fix? It might just be
some configuration on the Apple fileserver, but we're not sure where to
look at this point. We've also seen this problem with users on Linux
systems, so it may be only an Apple fileserver/GNOME interaction issue.
Any assistance would be appreciated,
Debbie
