Cool problem with NIS server


i did configure NIS server on one computer
and exports users " user1,user2,user3" home directory.
from client side by automounter file i was trying to mount /home/user1
on /home/network/user1
but after mounting it was giving the error no such home directory
and using / as a home directory.
what was the cause .
any solution.

Curious, did you setup NIS or NFS or both?
