Hi, we're currantly experiencing some very annoying problems with our netapp, apparently it's having a hard time mapping cifs-accounts against the nis-accounts. The errors we get are the following:
Sun Dec 12 08:18:32 CET [mountd]: yp_next: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out Sun Dec 12 19:02:55 CET [CIFSPasswordCache]: yp_next: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out Mon Dec 13 09:22:18 CET [rc]: CIFS terminated with 255 open files from 1167 CIFS users Mon Dec 13 09:24:23 CET [rc]: CIFS terminate aborted due to a hung CIFS I/O operation. Shutdown the system using halt -d and report this incident to NetApp
Anybody know what the problem is? I read a bug report on the now-site saying something about problems with more than 1000 entries in the yp-group-database, could this be it ???
Best regards

I am very familiar with this problem. After battling it for months i finally gave up, turned NIS off on our filers and wrote scripts to copy the files locally when NIS updates are made on the master server. There is no other solution that I, or anyone i talked to at Netapp, could come up with.
