Dynamic automounting of NFS volumes
Authored by: robleach on Jun 30, '03 01:03:14PM

Incidentally, this solved my trouble with doing the mount. I haven't reread my post, but I remember that the procedure recommended here worked once I had my sysadmin do the following on the remote machine... Apparently, the system the remote disk was on needed to "allow" my machine to mount it. Here's the summary my sysadmin gave me for doing that:

To allow a machine to mount remote disks, on the remote system:
Add machine name to /etc/netgroup
root@remote_machine [46] / % ypmake
update netgroup
push netgroup
update netid
push netid
root@remote_machine [47] /var/yp % shareall
