I have a problem that is probably NFS related. If I try to logon from
one machine to another I have to enter the password even though the
machine is listed in the .rhosts file. If I cat my .rhosts file (which
resides on a NFS mounted filesystem) on the host I try to logon to. I
can logon without giving a password, as it should be.
It seems like the pam module doesn't find anything in the file if it is
not in the filebuffer, if the filesystem is NFS mounted. If I try the
same with a local filesystem, it works fine.
Has anybody else seen this?
The machine I am trying to logon to is a redhat 4.0 machine. The NFS
server has a 2.0.15 kernel and is running nfs server version 2.1.
-Magnus.
