Since 'start' didn't work I have tried the following things to fix it: Added auto.master to YP. "auto.master" contains "/net -hosts intr,nosuid" Ran "newkey -u root" and "newkey -h chocolate" to generate publickey.byname entries. Ran keyserv -n to generate /etc/.rootkey. Added /etc/site and YP'd it into site.byname. This is just an empty file, on our master YP server, does anyone know what goes in it? Anyway the error message I am now getting when I try "automount /net -hosts" is "Authentication error ... not owner" or something to the effect that secure RPC is failing.
