Thanks Jordan, This is too silly, sorry to waste everyone's time. The NIS master crashed and was down.

It is also using options wafl.default_unix_user to map to pcuser.      Do you currently have an /etc/usermap.cfg, and what does that look like if it is anything other than the default comments.   I am guessing that you do not have any mappings in the file and the times it worked correctly is because the same username exists in unix and windows.  (if the username is the same on both sides, it should map with default settings, if it is different and you want something other than the wafl.default_unix_user you need to edit the usermap.cfg)           From:toasters-bounces@teaparty.net [mailto:toasters-bounces@teaparty.net] On Behalf Of Iluhes Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2013 2:53 PM To: Toasters Subject: Mapping CIFS user to Unix user   I have a very strange issue.
