Comment 24 for bug 1007293

Finally I fixed it:

I replaced the nis-server name entries in yp.conf with its ip-addresses. Now everything works fine, even autofs.
The only thing one has to do additionally is, inserting the following line into /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

greeter-show-manual-login=true

Otherwise one cannot login as a nis user from login manager lightdm. From my point of view, this has to be done automatically during installation of nis or ldap client packages.

I don't know why I have to give IP adresses instaed of qualified names. Can it be that
either dns is starting after nis?
or boot time is too quick to wait for dns response?

Nice WE
