mountd[12314]: [ID 664212 daemon.error] No default domain set

[spaigejr]

Can someone tell me why I see this message in /var/adm/messages.
mountd[12314]: [ID 664212 daemon.error] No default domain set

/etc/defaultdomain is not set, but we are not using NIS. I thought that was the only time the file was needed.

Solaris 8 - kernel 18
SunFire 6800

Thanks

Are you sure that autofs is not running? Autofs trys to mount nfs shares when you try to access those directories.

Make sure there aren't any auto_[something] in /etc. Those should be a moot point though if autofs is not running. You should eb able to safely shutdown autofs by running:

/etc/init.d/autofs stop

Hope this helps!

It could be referring to a missing fully qualified domain name in /etc/resolv.conf perhaps? Annihilannic.

It sounds almost like it is trying to pull the automount info from nis and the /etc/defaultdomain file is not present. check the /etc/nsswitch.conf file and see what the setting is for automount. If it has nis in that line, remove it so it only says files.
