We have a situation here where our Solaris 9 workstations will lock up
under a certain situation.
We have a bunch of individual workstations that are a part of a large
NIS domain where individual users' home directories and project data
files are stored on Network Appliance filers and automounted to whatever
workstation the user is on. The problem we are seeing is in this
situation:
User is in the gnome desktop using a gnome terminal session. If a user
is in an automounted directory that for some reason gets deleted out
from underneath them, and they issue a command such as 'ls', the pwdx
command kicks off and takes 100% of the system and locks up the system.
You have to do either a power-off/on or stop-a to reboot. This does not
occur when the user is in the CDE desktop or when the same thing happens
when the directory is on a local disk. Only gnome and only an
automounted directory.
I have scanned the Sunsolve KB with no luck.
Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks
