[ILUG] NIS-newbie-Question(s)

[Minzenmay, Marcus]

Hi All,

I have setup a Linux/Nis enviroment for testing. 
The homedirs are accessed by an NFS-mount to /home/nis/<username> on the
server.
Using the homedir by the NIS-User works fine so far.

As root on the NFS/NIS - server I habe created am /home/nis/test - directory

and chown'd it to user/group of the NIS-user who is owner of
/home/nis/<username>

'ls' as root nos shoes the ownerships I have expected  - a cd to /home/nis
from the 
client's side shows the owner of the dir is still root and I am also not
able to 
access this directory.

So what am I doing wrong ???


Thank for helping, Marcus
