Has anyone running SunOS 4.1 and PC-NFS run into authentication problems?
Here's the scoop:
SparcStation 1+
SunOS 4.1
NIS Master Server
Sun PC-NFS 3.0.1
pcnfsd compiled (under 4.1) from source on PC-NFS disks
When the PC issues the NET NAME <user> * command, we get a authentication
failure ~50% of the time. Doing a retry and entering the user name /
password combination rarely (if ever) works. However, rebooting the PC at
this point will result in no authentication problems (~95% of the time).
We have been using PC-NFS for 1-2 years now with NO problems. This sprang
up _immediately_ after we upgraded the server to 4.1...
BTW, I also tried the newest version of pcnfsd that was posted recently to
c.p.n but the results are identical.
Any takers? Geoff?
Thanks in advance,
Robert
